Apparently in the past day, they’ve removed all the logos from the Microgrants projects and clarified that the grants are unsolicited

If you are comfortable using F-Droid or Obtainium I found HeliBoard to be a good keyboard replacement: https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard

Sadly anything not going through the Google Play store is currently under attack: https://f-droid.org/2025/09/29/google-developer-registration-decree.html

    Hah! That's why I said I was using Heliboard :P As noted, not the greatest text prediction. e.g. I'll type "in" specifically starting over the I, and it still types "on", and it also doesn't like shorthand wording, like "gonna" which every time gets replaced with "Gibbs"

    Still better than the Google keyboard with its billion all-seeing eyes on you.

    🤦‍♂️ Sometimes I wonder who those people are who immediately jump to conclusions because they can't be bothered to read a simple paragraph of text. Me. The answer is - it's me!

    Hopefully something good still came out of it. Maybe as someone else recommended adding your frequently used words to your dictionary will help with word sugggestions.

    Can't you just put the shorthand words you want in a personal dictionary? That worked for me. Able to type words not in the default dictionary without autocorrecting.

    I suppose I could have, but I'm still somewhat babystepping in Heliboard. I think if I give it a bit more time, it'll click better. I guess I was just so used to the seemingly solid prediction options for Google Keyboard way back. But having less of my info passing over to them, the better.

    I just switched to Heliboard. I like it, but I wish it had swiping.
