It worked for me without restarting. Lemme know if you're still interested in trying it out, maybe it can be troubleshot.

Yes! Also the original, actively developed Open Board has a vastly superior auto correct. I've just been using it for a couple hours now but I absolutely love it.

My typing speed was really good in SwiftKey because of it's autocorrect. I felt hindered with the previous fork, but this one is absolutely wonderful. I'm about 90-95% there.

Thanks for this, btw. The fork that has swiping enabled hasn't been updated for over a year at this point :/

u/sudo22 has mentioned that a library is required to enable swiping, but I don't have a clue on how to download/use it. I'll try figuring it out.

Edit : Figured it out, the app allows you to import the libjni_latinimegoogle.so file if you've downloaded it.

The guy just shared how they use a device they bought with their money. You don't need to gatekeep. Or whatever this is.

Thanks for posting this! I too am guilty of not wanting to open the video in the first place, lol.

Quick question - any issue with just saving passwords on Firefox? I use FF across all my devices and the sync between them without the need of an extra app is super convenient.

Or am I just being naive?

Oh I meant comments supporting Pop. Don't see anyone really mention it.

Why is it that in such posts I don't see PopOS mentioned anywhere? I've been using it on my 8 year old laptop and it works really well! It had Win 10 on it previously and would crash if I opened more than 2 tabs on Firefox.

Solid educated guess, damn!

Check out one of the comments which has a fork of OpenBoard with swipe. I'm using it right now and it's quite a solid alternative!

I've tried most of the ones suggested on here, but I don't recall any of them having this feature.

Check out the comment which includes the fork of OpenBoard with swipe. I'm using it right now and it's fantastic!

Hahah, that's hilarious! I tried ASK as well but gave up after 10-15 minutes of using it.

One of the comments has a link to a fork of OpenBoard that includes swipe (version 1.4.5 or something), and it works really well. The auto correct isn't as great as Swiftkey (I'm hoping it gets better with time), but the swiping is absolutely solid.

Been using this for about a day now and I don't see myself going back to Swiftkey. Typed this comment with it, hahah.

I didn't even think about how you can "spend" time with others using handhelds. I like this idea :)

While its solid you're into the efficiency of it all, as an outsider it seems like an added headache to remember which card would be best for which outlet / type of transaction. I personally just maintain a few cards and only switch once I've reached about 50-60% the limit.

Proton Mail just has 5 gigs for the free version. Doesn't seem like it's enough for me to switch to it long term.

Check out the comment about the version of OpenBoard that supports swipe. I'm using it right now, actually. It's not perfect but serves as a solid alternative to Swiftkey.

I'm not sure ifn you've seen the rest of the thread, but there's a version of OpenBoard that has swipe as well. It's almost exactly the experience I've been looking for. You might like it as well.

Agreed, it's a fantastic alternative.

Yep, this is absolutely fantastic. Thanks a bunch! It's like 85%-90% of my Swiftkey experience, so I'm loving this!
