OK, dang, y'all.

Just tried the #AOSP / #LineageOS / #CalyxOS-stock keyboard, and it has gotten so freaking good!!

It's actually giving #FUTO keyboard a run for its money, if you can believe that!

I want to heap huge praise on the #FUTO keyboard, both the text and speech-to-text modes.

Unlike Samsung keyboard, it's predictive text can guess when I don't quite hit the right key and suggests words using adjacent letters. For example, it detected I typed "eas" and it suggested "was" as one of the options.

It's not always suggesting weird proper nouns I never heard of.

It does Swype, which I'm increasingly bad at. I never learned two-thumb typing. But still, it's there if you need it.

Some background into the creation of #FUTO that you can watch on their #peertube channel :)

I listened to the full uncut version of #TuxJam episode 121 "Kumander & Keyboard".
A full 2 hours, 6 minutes, & 27 seconds of my life.
Wonderful banter and discussion by @kevie , @mcnalu, @thelovebug, & @mralc
They discussed recently released #Linux distros from #DistroWatch, reviews of #Kumander Linux and the #FUTO keyboard for Android.
The episode contained excellent Creative Commons licensed independent music and permission given music tracks.

Que lo mismo andáis preocupados por la privacidad de vuestros sistemas de mensajería pero no os habéis planteado lo que hace el teclado de vuestro móvil.

If you're using an android phone you need this:

I have been on the lookout for a sensible Gboard replacement that wasn't making my (voice) typing experience painful, and so far only FUTO Keyboard managed to provide that.

It has really good offline voice typing as well, which is something I use a lot.

I can not recommend this enough!

#Android (late late late) #SpringCleaning:

Uninstalled:

• #Loops (more annoying than interesting now )
• Unused #TTS app
• #SimpleX Chat (never really used it much)
• Breakout71 (utterly addictive, thanks @tripplehelix)
• #HeliBoard (now using #FUTO)

Bon un compte Gmail de moins

Piouf ça avance mais si je veux tous les supprimer avant la fin de l’année (2024 ) y'a du boulot, je voudrais quand même trier au cas où j’aurai oublié quelques changements de mail ou des oldies à garder.

Évidement ça fait + 2 ans j'ai remplacé Waze et Maps par #MagicEarth et #OrganicMaps, Youtube par #NewPipe, #PeerTube et #YtDlp

Et toutes les Apps Google par #FossiFy, le clavier par #Futo, Evernote par #Joplin

Etc... #WIP #DéGooglisation
