I’ve looked at a few on fdroid and they all seem like they aren’t being maintained anymore.

Edit: I’ve spent the past day trying most all of the suggested keyboards here and I think I’ve landed on either Unexpected Keyboard or AnySoftKeyboard. Thanks for all the suggestions. Thumbkey is quite the thing to get used to.

    Lotta good recommendations here. If you get GrapheneOS, you could get any keyboard (including GBoard) and turn off its network access at the app level (as well as sensors and other permissions), which would make virtually any keyboard privacy-friendly.

      I use AdGuard and do the same with its built in Firewall feature for GBoard. The thing is, since I don’t use custom ROMs I can’t be sure that GBoard won’t just use Google Services for spying/tracking.

      You don’t even need GrapheneOS for that, I’m using LineageOS and can turn off internet access for apps

        Yes but the Graphene community have to mention it as much as possible.
