Keyboard suggestions (feddit.de)

Hey everyone,

I'm using GrapheneOS and I'm looking for a keyboard that can access two language dictionaries at the same time (in my specific use case: German and Englisch. The standard keyboard in grapheneOS has a switch button for the languages, but I find that rather annoying.

Do you have any suggestions?

I have the same dilemma as you, except with French rather than German. I tried AnySoftKeyboard, which was the best FOSS keyboard I've tried, but the autocorrect basically defaulted to English even when I was trying to type French sentences.

I ended up just setting up SwiftKey and revoking network permissions after downloading the French dictionnary. My dependence on autocorrect slightly outweighs my FOSS values.
