Yeah I looked at Fossify keyboard, but it doesn’t have swipe typing, which I find quicker on my phone.

I’ll eventually be putting together a personal blog of my mini cloud server setup, when I have something written, I’ll post it here.

Oh it’s still very much a work in progress. I’ve been on GrapheneOS for a little over a month now. The VPS I’ve had for a few weeks. There’s still a tonne to do to properly degoogle, but the plan is coming together.

The app I’m missing most at the mo, is GBoard. I’m using FUTO keyboard as a replacement, but its swipe to type is nowhere near as good as GBoard. I have to be a lot more precise with where my thumb swipes, and I end up correcting or manually typing around 10% of words. You could be quite imprecise on GBoard and it would figure out what you wanted, FUTO takes more effort.

I’ve installed GrapheneOS on my phone, liking how clean an OS it is. There’s a bit of a learning curve to set things up, but it’s working nicely. I feel more in control of my phone.

I’ve been working on a personal cloud server, hosted on a VPS running NextCloud with Collabora for file management and document editing. I’ve got some other apps on there as well, still setting things up but I’m enjoying the infrastructure challenge.

I’ve switched over to OpenStreetMap for navigation. It’s certainly not Google maps, but the navigation works well.

Using my hosting provider for my email as I can use my own domain, running on a simple exchange server. Migrating from gmail after 20 years is a long and arduous process, I think I’ll be finished some time this year.

I just recently set up a private NextCloud instance and had OnlyOffice integrated for document editing, until I tested it on my phone and saw you needed to pay for a license to edit documents on mobile. Went with Collabora instead, which is working nicely. Dodged a bullet there.
