I resigned a couple years ago to using the default aosp keyboard as well, only to find out a couple of weeks ago about heliboard. It has gesture typing and multilingual support, which I missed from gboard. autocorrect is still crap, but i'm already used to it, so for me it was an all around improvement. quite surprised to see others not liking it
I get it, I've been there, but there is just no point in hating yourself because random big company wants to make money off of you, so they shove convenience in your face. Just do you best to align yourself to your values. Doesn't have to be perfect. It's ok if it's always work in progress. Don't put your life and wellbeing on hold.
Also duckduckgo.com/aichat is a thing.
