Gboard is getting visibly worse almost on a daily basis, especially autocorrecting perfectly legitimate words, presumably based on dubious analysis of other people’s writing. So what’s worth trying? The ability to swipe type is a big plus

That’s still a benefit of Android. As long as you have the apk of an app, there’s usually a good chance it’ll keep working.
There’s even a patched version on xda of Swype that lets it work on most devices, even though it no longer matches minimum android versions in the last official apk. It’s kinda funny, my phone still runs it fine, and it’s on 14, but I have a tablet on 13 that it won’t allow it without jumping though hoops that are a pain in the ass (but that’s Samsung, and they’re dicks about a lot of stuff).
