FOSS keyboard under active development? (Android) (lemmy.ca)

I have been looking all day for a FOSS keyboard that's under active development. It seems like more of not all of the ones I've seen recommended haven't been updated in over a year some three years. I don't mind if it's a long time between updates but I want to know bugs will be fixed eventually.

I am enjoying learning how to use the thumb-key:

I see a lot of potential in it. I miss the escape, control, and the alt keys, and a partial select (in addition or instead of the 'select all') would be nice. However, for all the bread and butter typing, it seems great to me now.

Been using it as well. It requires practice, but it does feel like a better typing experience for a mobile device.
