Has Gboard gotten worse for y’all? For past year or so it’s gotten progressively worse for me. Has it been your experience too?

    When one of my devices started complaining it was low on space, I noticed the Gboard was consuming half a gigabyte of storage. I tried a different keyboard, which annoys me very much, and I might go back to Gboard.

    Why would Gboard require so much space? For a keyboard? How does that make sense?

        It would have to be logging way more than the things I’d typed on a touchscreen to justify that kind of storage consumption, though. Even one million characters is a ton of typing. But 500 million? I will probably never type that much in my whole life.
