A pretty interesting take, and an interesting discussion about what it means to be open source. Is there room for a trusted space between open source and closed corporate software?

    Exactly. I use and enjoy FUTO Keyboard and Grayjay, but I’m under no illusion about them being open source, they’re source available. I think they’re great products and great alternatives to proprietary software, but until it’s released under a proper FOSS license, I will be keeping my eye out for credible alternatives.

      You might like HeliBoard licensed under GPLv3. I’ve been using it for several months and I really like it. Sadly, for swipe-typing you need to load proprietary library.

        Currently using HB as well and it’s really nice. I’d like to try FlorisBoard again in the future, after they’ve reached some of their milestones. Seems like it’d be even nicer… If only it made such progress. Not complaining, though, I’ll wait as long as they need.
