I don't know what marketer needs to hear this, but every time you promote a new "#AI" feature it drives me *away* from your product.

A tool I haven't used? Hard pass.

A tool I've used and loved for years? Perhaps it's time to reevaluate our relationship.

Sure, I'm one person, but I'm certainly not alone.

@stevegrunwell Literally used Swiftkey since before Microsoft bought it. The moment they stuck Copilot in it, unasked, I began looking for another keyboard only to find that literally EVERY GODDAMN KEYBOARD is a fucking "AI" keyboard. Makes me wanna fucking vomit.

Anyway, to save all you Android users the struggle: look up Futo keyboard. 100% offline keyboard.

I have been using "Hacker's Keyboard" since the days of Android 2.3 - for more than a decade it gave me a consistent virtual keyboard, with Tab / Ctrl / arrow keys, on devices from many manufacturers.

It's a lot of work to keep it compatible with Android, and now "it's possible that it will stop working on modern devices or will no longer be updateable via the Google Play store due to minimum API level requirements".
