Anyone tried this? Works perfectly for me. Any reason why I should go back to the OpenBoard fork with Swipe?

Does it actually have swipe typing? I just downloaded to check and it doesn't seem like it does.

Florisboard also has gesture typing, however i rarely use it. I find i make a lot more mistakes than i did swipe typing with gboard

It doesn't have suggestions tho, so swipe is kinda useless if you don't get the right word.

And the rebooted version has been in alpha development for so long, it's essentially dead.
