Same here actually, ~10 years too lol, since my first Android. SwiftKey worked very well (for me at least) but its owned by Microsoft, which gathers user data. I’ve been making a switch to FOSS apps and trying to degoogle myself in the recent months.
It was hard for me to leave SwiftKey due to other options being unsatisfactory / other keyboards always missing something, but HeliBoard did the trick for me :)
HeliBoard is amazing, I recommend it! For those wondering how to enable simultaneous multi-lingual support (i.e. swipe or text in both languages and get predictions in both languages), I explained it in this comment chain, and included a screenshot for reference:

I tried both, AnySoftKeyboard was a bit too much effort and took me longer to type on unfortunately. HeliBoard was a nice replacement for SwiftKey for me though.
It is the only spice that counts.
The spice must flow.
Yeah, that’s what I interpreted. That’s what I enabled with the steps I mentioned. I have the English keyboard enabled in Heliboard. I tapped on it, and added Polish in the “multilingual” section.
I both typed and swiped to właśnie zdanie (this exact sentence) i słowa w nim (and the words in it). Simultaneously.
Added is a screenshot for reference. If you meant something completely different (like letter gesturing?), sorry, I don’t follow.
OP, thank you for sharing this. I think this (Heliboard) is my new favorite keyboard that satisfies my personal requirements!!! I mean it.
And to think I almost didn’t click on the post because of the title 🤣…
I’m wondering the same. Sure would be nice.
EDIT: And I found it a minute after my post lol. Inside Heliboard, go to settings, find languages, don’t use system languages. Add your main language, then tap it and a “hidden” menu will come up. In it is the multilingual option. Tapping it will enable you to add another language to the same Heliboard language.
This is a beautiful masterpiece. Thank you for sharing, kind sir.
Agreed, best RPG (perhaps best game) I ever played. So good I have to replay it at least once every few years.
In case you’re looking for something that may fit your criteria…
Warzone 2100 is an amazing game. It’s what gets me to replay the game every so often. An RTS, though I think RTT (Real Time Tactics) would be more accurate here. Choice of units matters (for ex: a main force of anti tank and anti infantry units, an auxiliary force of artillery units, another force of air support… Using these tactically is the key to victory). A special commander unit exists that increases your forces effectiveness and determines the course or movement/attack. When managed right, units obtain ranks, increasing their effectiveness and survivability. These units can be recycled to reclaim their ranks and generate better units with those ranks. You can slow down the game (and practically pause it), speed it up as well.
There’s two types of missions in it: the main map, which expands multiple times. As you progress through the missions, the map expands, you unlock new technology (buildings, units, etc), you get to use the base to defend against enemy attacks multiple times.
The other type of mission consists of using your base to send out units to surrounding zones (to reclaim technology, for ex). These surrounding zones are separate maps connected to the base on the main map.
There are 3 campaigns in it. I highly recommend Warzone2100. Oh, and it’s open source these days, and available on multiple platforms.

I’ve already seen Mindustry mentioned, but also an amazing game. It is less RTS and more resource management / tower defense. Also free and available on multiple platforms.
