de-googling more and more and i was wondering what your favorite Chinese keyboards are on Android. Right now I am using GBoard's, and i kinda like it (你好！我将很臭中文.）but i also kinda hate google (我很恨谷歌。）do any of you comrades have good alternatives?

bonus question: good ways to type chinese on linux?

I don't know of any libre keyboard for pinyin input, but there's a stroke input method keyboard on F-Droid (yeah it's not practical at all). There's also a bopomofo keyboard on there too iirc
