    Or they have the same issue as me, their phone keyboard randomly inserting periods all the time. I manually remove them most of the time, but when I’m agitated, I sometimes can’t be bothered.

    This happens with several apps, e. g. https://www.reddit.com/r/Swiftkey/comments/wylng4/random_periods/

    I didn’t particularly want to link to reddit, but I wasn’t able to quickly find e. g. an issue tracker.

      I use and recommend HeliBoard. It’s foss, it’s customizable, it’s privacy conscious and, other than weird ideas about capitalization sometimes, it’s working flawlessly in two languages simultaneously for me ❤️

          Does it do swipe and how well? Github says a blob library is needed for that. Can’t be bothered with typing individual letters anymore on mobile

            Glide typing (only with closed source library ☹️)

            • library not included in the app, as there is no compatible open source library available
            • can be extracted from GApps packages (“swypelibs”), or downloaded here (click on the file and then “raw” or the tiny download button)

            Haven’t tried it yet. GitHub does say it is possible by downloading the library.

      It would also help if these dumb fucking developers wouldn’t put the period right next to the god damn space bar. That might solve a problem or two but noooooooooope it’s gotta be right next to the space bar.
