Well my question was specifically about smart prediction (beyond autocorrect). I have found scores of privacy friendly keyboards. The one I have been using for a year is from simplemobiletools (they have a full suite of apps and I use most of them ie contacts, gallery, notes...) but I miss the prediction feature. As you say even autocorrect is not yet supported in florisboard...but that wouldn't be enough for me. Personalised dictionary based on typing would be a start, but swiftkey goes beyond, it proposes the next words before you type them
It is also in the works along with auto correct... You really should try the keyboard first before coming to that conclusion. I am not saying it has everything now but don't assume the developer isn't planning to add more, that's not a good assumption.
Given the project has been paused more than a year, I'll wait and see
