My understanding is that modern touchscreen keyboard use very aggressive predictive text so that the actual "shape" of the keys in terms of where you touch the screen isn't even well defined. This certainly feels like the case in contexts where it's turned off, like Google Search. Is this more of an aesthetic thing?
The way this was tested too was weird. I had the round keys for one interaction and then they went away. I can't find an option to even turn them on if I wanted to.
Are there any decent but basic swipe keyboards? Swiftkey was miles better than Gboard, but Microsoft acquired it and made it crap. It's got AI in it now apparently...
I hate Ghoulgle's keyboard, somewhat passionately when I'm feeling peaceful.
I once installed a 3rd party keyboard and was naive enough to disable gboard. I was of course very pleased to find no method of entering my creds upon reboot. I had to reinstall.
