I have been looking all day for a FOSS keyboard that's under active development. It seems like more of not all of the ones I've seen recommended haven't been updated in over a year some three years. I don't mind if it's a long time between updates but I want to know bugs will be fixed eventually.

I still use it to occasionally have access to special keys, but this is enough for me to switch away from it as a daily driver.

i mean its a keyboard, why would it need updates if it just works

It can read all of your inputs including passwords so security updates would be nice.

it cant talk to the network since its behind afwall (firewall for android). Sure if i have another app that can comunicate with the internet that then somehow gets into my keyboard that would be a thread.
