Describe the bug
Google's default keyboard (Gboard) is now unusable; even if you disable autocorrection, it performs infinite miscorrection of most words so that it is not possible to use.
Google Store does not list alternative keyboards which do not contain ads,
so the last option is to build from source or download Hacker's Keyboard from F-droid,
but am not comfortable to go around Android's default of "third party apps" disabled (which is sound).
How much $ do you want to produce a new version of this for Google Store?

To Reproduce

  1. Go to "Google Store"
  2. Click on "Search"
  3. Input "Hacker's Keyboard"
  4. result is "This app isn't available for your device because it was made for an older version of Android."

Expected behavior
Option to install Hacker's Keyboard

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

Additional context

  • For over a decade, Hacker's Keyboard has had much use.
  • Have produced thousands of pages of code with this keyboard,
  • Android does not have good alternative keyboards to switch to.
    • If possible, am glad to fund/purchase new versions of this from you.
