rkeenan Have the maintainers of GrapheneOS considered replacing the AOSP keyboard with FUTO keyboard? FUTO is the best keyboard I've tried and I've tried them all, including FlorisBoard, Fossify Keyboard and HeliBoard. The text prediction is VERY good, almost on par, if not as good as GBoard.
What is wrong with FUTO keyboard? It's open source and very privacy friendly.
de0u "Open Source" does not mean the same thing as "the source is on GitHub".
The current FUTO keyboard license is here. It is different from licenses recognized as "open source" by the OSI because it forbids people from doing things that are allowed by the OSI-approved "open source" licenses.
The current FUTO license isn't necessarily bad in an absolute sense. But it is very possible that the GrapheneOS developers won't accept it.
Doesn't the licence allow the ship the keyboard app with GrapheneOS?
I looked into their licence and it seems like its allowed to modify and redistribute it, as long at is none comercial and doesn't interfer with FUTOs own payment stuff.
