I genuinely enjoy GBoard. Now; I get it. It’s not for everyone and it hasn’t got the best…track record.
It does actually surprisingly work very well; and I have yet to see anyone on the FLOSS/F-Droid side of things manage to create a keyboard with similar functionalities. I get that it may be an impossible ask, but it seems like nobody on F-Droid is interested in creating a keyboard inspired by GBoard that actually has all the similar QoL features that GBoard offers.

I see nothing wrong with using Gboard if it’s network access is disabled. I find it’s auto-correct kinda terrible.
I think people don’t like it bc it’s made by Google. They are definitely tracking everything typed on it lol
