I use typewise. It feels like there is more space for every button and i no longer accidentally press the space button

I absolutely adore this keyboard, I just wish they'd add a voice input button so I could use FUTO's voice to text with it.
The amount of people on here that are okay with a corporation phoning home everything you type is a bit scary. Googles Gboard and Microsoft’s SwiftKey are a privacy nightmare. Check out FUTO: https://keyboard.futo.org/

I kind of hate takes like these because its such a false equivalence. People aren't OK with it, but the vast majority of people don't have time to fight this battle when every single aspect of modern technology is in a constant arms race to do more and more surveillance.
It's great there are people like you who want to promote more private alternatives, and even better that people are making more private alternatives, but the reality is most foss apps are far inferior user experiences to corporate apps. Until that changes it's always going to be an uphill battle to convince people to switch, and it's not because they're "ok with corporate surveillance". That isn't even in the calculation to begin with and it's not making any friends or building any bridges to imply that about people. You would help your cause a lot if you took a less judgemental approach to spreading the word about it.
Sorry for the soapbox, but I see this attitude on here a lot and it really misses the mark and does damage to an otherwise worthy cause (spreading the word about better software). I don't think you mean anything bad when you say this, but I just want you to understand how it comes off to people who aren't invested in that lifestyle.
I use the stock AOSP keyboard. Because it's installed by default on LineageOS.
