T1 here. I use OpenAPS with a G6 for closed looping (it's substantially better than Medtronic's looping algorithm), combined with a keto diet. The keto diet makes things a lot easier; there's no carb entry to do, so no opportunities for mistakes. I would indeed recommend it. Just make sure to count calories (at least initially) and keep them high enough; most people on keto diets are using them for weight loss, and that style of keto diet isn't sustainable.

Well, once you've finished "eating" your body fat, you can't sustain the calorie restriction. But at that point there's no reason too. For those of us prone to insulin resistance, we have to continue to eat low-carb to avoid putting the weight back on. (Very similar to how an alcoholic who's gotten sober has to continue to avoid alcohol.) But we don't need to have a caloric deficit anymore.
