I am looking for a good FOSS keyboard with suggestions and the ability to add multiple languages.

I use OpenBoard most of the time and it's good if you are more privacy focused.

Same here. It works well, and it actually was the only FOSS keyboard for which I managed to properly set up a Bépo layout like I wanted.

Is it possible with this keyboard to swipe instead of type?

[–] MadMonkey@feddit.it 1 points 1 year ago

No, it's not possible by now

If you install a fork of it with that feature, yes. I personally use this fork: https://github.com/erkserkserks/openboard

Totally agree. You can customize it a load. It has a ton of functions even local spellchecking once setup

Second this. Tried a lot of keyboards when moving over to foss, and this one felt hands down the best for me.

I use AnySoft Keyboard. It is very configurable and has a lot of language options.

Vanilla GrapheneOS keyboard as per their guide.

Haven't seen unexpected keyboard mentioned. Been using that for a few months now. Lots of keys, not many other features. With a compose key, it would almost be perfect. Hackers is my backup keyboard.
