A pretty interesting take, and an interesting discussion about what it means to be open source. Is there room for a trusted space between open source and closed corporate software?

You can adjust the height in the settings (edit: under themes). I use the swipe and seems to be as good as other open source keyboards (I previously used heli and AnySoft). It is still in alpha so hopefully they can refine it further.

BTW, heliboard is also pretty excellent.

Ah, that height setting was hidden then lol. That fixes that issue! I'm also very aware of Heliboard, that's what I'm currently using (with the google proprietary blob for swipe typing). I just don't feel like the swipe is that good, it often just doesn't produce any word after I'm done swiping out the word. Thanks for the tip about the height!
