Using GBoard begrudgingly because there's no better alternative for me personally. I depend on the swipe typing and gestures a lot. Personalisation is off, and I don't use the next-word suggestions that often.
I don't really like SwiftKey's design or its Microsoft affiliation. I wish there was a good open-source alternative. Florisboard looks promising, but the last time I tried it, it was still lacking in features.
I use Kiwi out of necessity. The modern web is unusable without some way to block ads, cookie popups, and sticky elements. It's especially worse on mobile because every other website wants you to use their app.
Not surprisingly, it does all the data tracking that it can for a "text-based conversation app".
I've noticed that viewing the same community through different instances even when not logged in can show different posts, comments, and votes. I'm not sure why either.

It seems that admins can currently purge such images through a manual action.
Aside from the ads, you also have to sift through all of the crappy clones and shovelware to actually find something useful.
This was my exact experience a couple of days ago when I was trying to find a CSV viewer.
