Openboard has been doing well for me.

I've treid a few, I don't think any of them are as good as Swiftkey sadly. Swiftkey just works, even Gboard is nowhere near as good as it.

Wow, Openboard is a huge keyboard by default with lots of vertical key spacing. It also has two of my favorite Gboard features:

1. Swiping left and right on the spacebar moves the cursor left and right.
2. Swiping left starting at the backspace key will highlight text, then releasing the key will delete the highlighted text. However, it doesn't pop-up the deleted text as a suggestion to let you undo it, in case you didn't by accident.

If you are a Florisboard user, there is a version with dynamic Material You themes here. It's really good while we wait for the new versions with this official built-in

Any FOSS keyboards with swipe-to-text? Always seems like they're missing that

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find any alternative to gboard with good hand writing recognition for Japanese... So if you need that functionality I think gboard is your only choice

Im gonna give simple keyboard a week. If it works well, I might keep it.

For multilingual users, which keyboards you recommend? I type in 3 languages and need a a keyboard that can have all 3 languages enabled.

Anysoftkeyboard for me, it has good multilanguage support, lots of customization and even a swype option

What are the advantages of using this apps compared to the Android Keyboard (AOSP)?

FlorisBoard is feature rich.

I'm always looking for an android keyboard that is either only a number pad, or can be configured to show the number pad first by default. I have this one use case, playing farkle mostly, where I like to split screen excel and an image of the rules, and because excel is open split screen the keyboard always opens to letters. It drives me nuts that I cannot force a keyboard to open to a number pad.

I've got three soft keyboards enabled on my phone, to choose between as needed.

Unexpected Keyboard is my default; it's a perfectly cromulent basic keyboard, that makes all the punctuation, ctrl/fn/esc available for comfy shell work.

When I need to type in non-ascii characters like accented letters, I have AnySoft available. And pwsafe has a soft keyboard in it to let me avoid passing my (exceedingly hard to type, long random) passwords through the clipboard.

I used to have Hacker's Keyboard in the mix, but Unexpected Keyboard has made it unnecessary.

Thumb-key is different but great
