I just want to comment on how good Gboard is with multiple languages that share a keyboard (or nearly do). It's gonna be the hardest thing to give up in my slow de googling process.

I used to have English/Spanish and now English/Danish. It will autocorrect mostly to whichever mode you're in first, but will do some and not fight you on the secondary. Very good for like a conversation in English but an address in another language.

I don't think it adds anything to my Japanese keyboard layout, just have to swap each way

And you can set the layout while still having the localized letters (e.g. polish keyboard + special characters with qwertz layout)
