Is there any reputable OSS keyboard out there that lets you search emojis instead of paging through the whole unicode set?

Preferably one that looks nice and also also takes avantage od spell checker? (looking piintedly at otherwuse beautiful fossify keyboard)

FUTO Keyboard has emoji search and autocorrect. It's still an alpha release, but I've been using it for months.

Oh, excellent -- thank you!

AnySoftKeyboard

You type a :

And then start writing a keyword(no spaces), until the emoji appears in the search-list above.

I've been using AnySoftKeyboard for years and never realised it could do this.

I don't know if this qualifies as emoji search, but FlorisBoard shows autocomplete suggestions for emoji if you type ":" and then the name of an emoji, for example entering ":unamu" shows "😒" as an autocomplete suggestion.

FlorisBoard also looks pretty good (in my opinion).
