Try AnySoftKeyboard. Works great and is FOSS.

In my experience, the predictions were atrocious and not very smart, at least in French. It also couldn't detect words that had personal pronouns or determiners with an apostrophe, I had to type the apostrophe manually which is a no-go for me.

And it does not support having multiple languages at once which is incredibly inconvenient when you frequently have to switch between 4 languages when typing and when you often mix some of them.

But if you type without the autocorrect and the predictions, it can be great, I guess.

this. gboard is the only solution I've used that's decent at multilingual typing

it still gets confused when you mix languages but in general it's ok

This looks interesting so far, thank you.
