Simple Mobile apps have been very popular among FOSS enthusiasts. I've personally been using the Gallery, Contacts and the Phone app since a few years now. It's a shame that it has come to this, will be on the lookout for their forks.

What about OpenBoard? It is maintained and a great keyboard

NVM, it is not maintained, but there is a very active fork: https://github.com/Helium314/openboard

Dann that is nice!I It will probably be the replacement for people needing autocomplete!

Testint it currently and I think it is the perfect replacement for iPhone people as the cursor thing is similar.

I love the granular autocorrection as I would set only suggestions without correction if the language was new to me.

I will stick with Florisboard though, I prefer the pitch black dark mode (and dont need anything else) and I love the internal clipboard, history, deletion etc. It is so much better for privacy.

Also the text editing shortcuts are great and needed for the clipboard.
