Have tried it and its gestures are impressively configurable but key-based - having to configure every single key for every single language to delete a word on left swipe &c. is a little too much. All these things would be visible on every key with no way to hide them, which feels like wires sticking out. There’re no actions for scrolling through correction options. As far as I can tell, neural prediction is specifically for swipe typing and I don’t use swipe typing. And it supports just a handful of languages too. But thank you!

It appears there’s a PR for gestures already, but there’s a non-zero probability it won’t be merged because of unexpected patents out of all things. Wonderful.

Yes, because I consider how the keyboard feels too. FlorisBoard felt better than Heliboard to my brain. And its action bar can be configured to always display above the correction bar.

Thank you, I’ve given it a try. It feels less bad than the other options I tried, probably forking it and adding missing gestures and small improvements could improve it much more. But text correction is still like in Heliboard.

Probably. Still, it might be useful for blog discovery. One doesn’t have to read the comments.
