I’ve been using Openboard as my keyboard since 2020, and I’m pleased with it. However, I’ve noticed that the latest update was back in August 2022. Does this mean it’s deprecated?

Are there any other simple FOSS Android keyboards that you have experience with and can recommend? I’d love to hear it!

      But AnySoftKeyboard also hasn’t been updated since January 2022, so I don’t think that that really improves the situation when switching from OpenBoard.

        AnySoftKeyboard Canary (the beta) was updated in March 2023. While I’m hopeful for some of the FOSS keyboards mentioned by others, for the time being I find AnySoftKeyboard to still be the most complete FOSS alternative to proprietary boards.
