I used the FUTO keyboard for a few months but ditched it as the word suggestions were either odd or random (one example: I'd write 'Jordan' and it would always suggest 'Peterson' as the next word), and I'd got a weirdly passive aggressive prompt saying I should really purchase a license. Went back to the de-Googled Android keyboard in GrapheneOS

Following "Jordan" with "Peterson" doesn't seem random in the slightest
It never had my own surname as a suggestion, and there's many people, places and things called 'Jordan' in some way
So you want it to randomly pick the next word, rather than suggest the most common word?
The most common word I entered after my forename is my surname. All other keyboards handled this fine, but FUTO didn't. That's what's odd
