    A good reminder to stop using gboard. Others have pointed to alternatives. Heliboard is another FOSS option that’s had this for years.

      I wish Heliboard was usable, but it has so many small but show-stopping bugs or omissions.

      I know, I know. Should fix it myself and do a pull request. Hopefully one day got time for that, like fixing the over-scaled emoji picked (that breaks kaomoji due to the scaling) or the lack of a search box there. It’s easily the closest FOSS keyboard to the big two (Gboard and SwiftKey), so with a bit more work it could really compete with them I feel.

        I tried to love Heliboard too, had similar issues.

        Moved to FUTO Keyboard after a recommendation on here, really happy with it
