I use OpenBoard most of the time and it's good if you are more privacy focused.

Same here. It works well, and it actually was the only FOSS keyboard for which I managed to properly set up a Bépo layout like I wanted.
Same. Except i had to modify it a little bit because I got used to Swift keyboard having suggestions on inputs that don't support it by default.
Is it possible with this keyboard to swipe instead of type?
No, it's not possible by now
I use AnySoft Keyboard. It is very configurable and has a lot of language options.
I use FlorisBoard
Second this. Tried a lot of keyboards when moving over to foss, and this one felt hands down the best for me.
I use https://github.com/rkkr/simple-keyboard because it has the features "hold space and swipe to move cursor" and "hold backspace and swipe to delete". You can add different languages. Which Android do you use? I'm curious because doesn't any keyboard (android) allow you to switch languages?
+1 for simple-keyboard
Another one that i use is Florisboard. It also supporta hold space and hold backspace. Additionally you can customize the layout and glide typing is available for english
I'd probably use it already if it supported emojies...
I am on Android 13. Thanks I'll give it a try!
Just the other day I discovered 8Vim and I'm exited to learn how to use it. It's a little buggy and it doesn't seem to support umlaut letters, so I can't use it for my native language.
Others I use are Hackers keyboard (for SSH), Anysoft, and Jbak. Not sure if the last one is FOSS.
Vanilla GrapheneOS keyboard as per their guide.
