    the unexpected keyboard is pretty handy. it will feel a little weird at first, but you’ll get used to it. you can find it on fdroid and i think also on google play

    if you don’t want to get used to using the menu bar, tool bar, and the mode popup menu, you should look for a keyboard configuration that allows the onscreen keyboard to pop up regardless of the mode (by default, it will only pop up in read/write buffers)

    i also strongly recommend installing the termux version if you wanna do anything useful
