Preference for AnySoftKeyboard.
Why is there so many censored posts about keyboard apps?
I don’t know, but Thumb-Key is written to by a core Lemmy developer, dessalines.
what a fantastic way to indicate my turbo nerd status to my friends and family!
I like HeliBoard. It automatically switches between the languages I write in.
How do you make it switch automatically?
I just start writing in the different language and the suggestions + autocorrect switch for me. All the languages (other than Korean) use the same keyboard layout and for the umlauts I need to hold the aoeu shortly to get the right umlaut, or I just rely on the autocorrect.
Back to heliboard. I found the setting. In the languages selection, it seems it is only a toggle and to get the menu you need to long press. That needs to be fixed and put the multi language option outside.
Yeah heliboard is the only one I've found that is actually usable on a day to day. Just wish the autocorrect was better, other than that no complaints.

Thumb-key.
It takes a bit to adapt and create muscle memory but I can't change it now that I am used to it.
yeah. Takes a bit to get used to but I now have less typos than on regular keyboards. 🙂
I've actually tried everything that was recommended here, but AnySoftKeyboard still fits me the best.
I love the fulliness of unexpected keyboard
Unexpected keyboard is just the best!
Thumb-Key, hands down!
