It freezes. For minutes at a time. Not often, but minutes are too long, and you cannot kill it. Also, it auto hides in the middle of typing when you type "too fast", there are words you simply cannot swipe ("never" being one, it always gives "nerve"), some that constantly are guessed wrong (common words replaced by a rather obscure alternative), and sometimes, when you type "too fast", the cursor moves one or to positions backwards as you type.
Honestly I appreciate the effort it must have been to code, but I'm sad it has all those issues. That being said, it is still more usable than Florisboard...
The best one I found so far was the AOSP keyboard with swiping enabled via a proprietary blob. But, well, it's not entirely opensource...
Oh, that's too bad. I don't remember that behavior, but it's been a while since I last tried it.
