FUTO keyboard is not Open Source.

It surely is: https://github.com/futo-org/android-keyboard?tab=readme-ov-file

FUTO Keyboard was forked from another project which is Open Source. But the license FUTO keyboard itself is under, by restricting modifications to for non-commercial purposes and forbidding removal of functionality that allows the user to make payments to FUTO, fails to qualify as "Open Source".

Thx for pointing out.

AnySoftKeyboard does. And it's under an Apache 2.0 license which is fully foss.

Unfortunately AnySoft Keyboard doesn't seem to receive updates anymore, latest release dates back to 2022.

Switched to Heli Board now.
