Openboard
I tried openboard but am missing swipe.

That's the fork with swiping.
(Don't be a goof like me and install the Neo Store/Fdroid version and spend 15 minutes wondering how to enable swiping, btw. The version on Github which has swipe is from September 2022, a month after the Fdroid/Neo Store release: https://github.com/erkserkserks/openboard/releases/tag/v1.4.5-gesture-typing)
Too late, I guess ;)
But don't forget to go into settings and enable the Holo theme for that pure nostalgia goodness :)
I'm glad this is my first time using openboard so that I don't need this typeof keyboard nostalgia, because, and I don't want to hurt your feelings, BUT, boy, that theme is ugly.
Sweet! This is more comfortable to use coming from Gboard to ASK. I got used to the issues with ASK but def prefer AOSP keyboards more.
Yeah, thanks! This swipes indeed.
Yep, this is absolutely fantastic. Thanks a bunch! It's like 85%-90% of my Swiftkey experience, so I'm loving this!
