Unexpected-Keyboard

Some other FOSS apps I use daily: Aegis - 2FA (https://github.com/beemdevelopment/Aegis) Breezy Weather - A very good looking weather app (https://github.com/breezy-weather/breezy-weather) OnlyOffice Documents - MS Office suite replacement (https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/documents-app-android) Fossify Calendar (https://github.com/FossifyOrg/Calendar) Fossify Messages (https://github.com/FossifyOrg/Messages) Aves - Local gallery with great organization (https://github.com/deckerst/aves) Termux - Terminal emulator (https://github.com/termux/termux-app/) Unexpected Keyboard - A unique keyboard that pairs nicely with Termux (https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard) WG Tunnel - WireGuard client (https://github.com/wgtunnel/wgtunnel) These are all easily installed through Obtainium: https://obtainium.imranr.dev/

With how AI based dev is going, I'm guessing more and more people will discover and start using termux, tmux and the like. Typing on a phone sucks, but at least modal modes (vim) and unexpected keyboard[1] makes it somewhat tolerable. 1: https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard

I have Unexpected Keyboard which gives me most keys including Alt, Ctrl and Esc as well as F-keys. https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard

If you have Android, emacs is now officially supported on Android (https://f-droid.org/packages/org.gnu.emacs). Along with https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard, it turns out to be a pretty usable (assuming you are the type that is okay working with emacs in general). I am now in search of a simple way to sync notes between my phone and computer (without using Big Tech solutions).

Unexpected Keyboard [1] has a similar concept: you can tap keys to enter letters or swipe to the corners to input special characters. It also has all of the usual modifier keys so it's really nice to use together with Temux. [1] https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard

For sure it can[1] but Julow's perspective is that it's a lot of work so if it's important to someone the contribution would need to come from the community: https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard/issues/343 Interestingly while searching for that issue I learned that FUTO claims to have both a machine learning based autocomplete[2] and a swipe input so I'll definitely have to try that out. I wonder if it wouldn't be easier to teach FUTO about the corner keys than to try and integrate predictions and swiping into Unexpected 1: https://www.f-droid.org/en/packages/com.menny.android.anysof... 2: https://gitlab.futo.org/keyboard/keyboard-wiki/-/wikis/FUTO-... 3: https://gitlab.futo.org/keyboard/keyboard-wiki/-/wikis/FUTO-...

I use 3 different keyboards 1. for the daily stuff Android Keyboard (AOSP) 2. for when I need Ctrl-C, maths symbols and operators when SSHing into my RPI's Unexpected keyboard https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard 3. the old classic for everyting Hackers keyboard https://github.com/klausw/hackerskeyboard

Any of these should work. https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard https://github.com/openboard-team/openboard https://github.com/rkkr/simple-keyboard (guessing, since AOSP Keyboard works and this is a fork) Not open source: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/swiftkey Does not have glide/swipe (reserved for symbols), but I just installed and giving it a shot: https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard

MessagEase[1] is an Excellent alternative keyboard for mobile that I've been using for years... but it's not very maintained, and the maker recently decided to go subscription-based in a very messy way[2]. As an alternative I found thumb-key[3], which provides the same basic idea but the differences BREAK MY BRAIN and after some back-and-forth with the dev I realized that he doesn't intend to bridge the gap. So I decided to fork it and implement the features myself[4]. If someone knows Kotlin and is interested, any help will be appreciated =) Another alternative I found is Unexpected Keyboard[5], someone made a MessagEase-like layout[6], but it's the same problem of your brain breaking because of missing or misplaced things, so this one is also a no-go for me.

I use the Unexpected Keyboard [1] on Android. I can use shortcuts like on a real keyboard and it is easy to get used to. [1]: https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard
