Since yesterday, the really cool fork of openboard with active development and support of adding a swype library manually, got rebranded into Heliboard. A release on izzyondroidrepo and fdroid should be coming soon.

PS. If you are using the old fork you have to remove it first and do a backup of your settings.

This was what kept me on Microsoft's keyboard for ages, I've been using using this fork for the past month or two and it's by far the best FOSS keyboard for multilingual typing and autocorrect. Maybe not quite as polished as GBoard or SwiftKey but more than good enough.

I really suggest you give it a try! I admit setting up the multilingual support is slightly convoluted compared to proprietary options, though. This comment was typed on Heliboard, et je peux facilement changer en français aussi and even avoir des sentences that changent between les deux without beaucoup de difficulté.
