巨根が大好きHoly fuck for the first time ever it's no longer requires to use gboard for jap. Fucking finally. Based futa org

>>106989774Heliboard randomly capitalizes words for me for some reason.
Swipe typing is still not very good. But it went bad in google's keyboard too, recently.

After the recent drew article I'm tempted to use futa
>>106990707Just fork it if you're so concerned.Hell, you could even name the fork FUTA if you wanted.
>>106990707sounds gay
>>106989774where's the tegaki?
>>106990505So turn it off
Florisboard best board.
>>106990298Just use the Google Japanese Input keyboard.>b-but it's not updated anymore!Fucking why does it need updates?
>>106989774add tegaki support and I will have no more complaints
>>106989774stop using this! this is a nazi keyboard!(or so i was told)
>>106990707Ah, so that's why it's good.
>>106989774It'll be sweet as hell if they ever implement the drawing thing that gboard had. I loved drawing the Japanese characters.
>>106990707I fucking hate jew segfault but I was wondering why it wasn't in f-droid. I didn't read this schizo rant. instead I checked the license. I'm a free software retard so I'll stick with fcitx5 for android and sumire keyboard but I will admit that dictation and autocorrect are pretty snazzy.
What's a piece of tech you still use regularly that's surprisingly old, but you just can't bring yourself to upgrade? Could be anything from a specific model of phone to an ancient appliance.
>>106991840Sure, anon. Nothing like a /pol/ approved keyboard to really elevate your typing experience.
>>106989774>>106992098What exactly is the use case for this? I've just been using a romaji keyboard to type everything for years and never had an issue.t. live in Japan, speak fluent Japanese
>>106990831Meds, anon. It's the Futo keyboard, not your /d/ archive. Even Drew Devault isn't shilling for trannies.
>>106990707I already installed it, stop trying to sell it to me.
>>106990298still using Mozc for Androidゆるゆり、始まるよ〜
>>106989774>FUTO software>non-free>proprietary>can't fork because of restrictions>no reproducible binariesWhy would anybody use software family of FUTO instead of real FOSS software? For example for that proprietary keyboard you could use https://f-droid.org/packages/dev.patrickgold.florisboard/
>>106990707 >>106990831 >>106991961 >>106992480 >>106992551FUTO is far-left and proprietary.>>106990837>Just forkYou can't fork because it is proprietary software like Brave is. Binaries are not reproducible and the end result is different software than the original.
>>106992912FUTO is a fascist-adjacent, washed-up millionaire’s scummy vanity company.
>>106992912>it is proprietary software like Brave is. Binaries are not reproducibleCan you explain a bit more about this? Im still in the process of learning about free software, and according to brave they are free and open source. Their license is the same as Firefox's.What does it mean for a binary not to be reproducible? I had read about it already, but not sure what it implies in this context
futa is gay
>>106992466so you can type japanese characters?
>>106993209What exactly is the use case for this?
>>106993069>>106990331>>106992480dick input next release
>>106989774Why is the hell would anyone use the 12-key Japanese keyboard? Just type using Latin alphabet instead.
>>106993209But you can do that with any standard keyboard on literally any smartphone released in the past 10 years. Wtf is special about the one in the OP?
>>106993490It's "modern", "secure", and "respects" your privacy.
>>106990707YIKES! removing that fascist nazi incel chud keyboard right NOW!
>>106993490open source that respects your privacy?
Wtf is with these obvious lies and shills in this thread?>>106992912>You can't fork because it is proprietary software>>106992887>>can't fork because of restrictionshttps://gitlab.futo.org/keyboard/latinimehttps://github.com/futo-org/android-keyboardThere are already 74 forks on github.>>106992998Firefox seems to have more complex license. This one is simple and seems kind of like GPL but also forbids commercial use altogether. Which is fine whatever. The only questionable part imo is:>Notwithstanding the above, you may not remove or obscure any functionality in the software related to payment to the Licensor in any copy you distribute to others.But I never used this software so I have no idea what they are talking about.As for reproducible builds, it means that there is a method to recreate exact binary as they distribute through stores or whatever from source. Having reproducible builds is nice and increases trust, it's not really a widespread standard in FOSS and it's not all that important if you can build it from scratch anyway without using official builds.
>>106993429They are nice to use once you get used to.
