Keyboard Switcher vs Trime
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Keyboard Switcher
Keyboard Switcher is a keyboard selection application, it allows to switch easily from the current keyboard to another in several ways, thanks to a discreet floating button available on the screen, a shortcut, a tile, or a notification. This application makes it easy to switch keyboard if you do not have an effective way integrated into the operating system and the keyboard of your device. Note that in Lollipop and later versions of Android, a long press on the space bar of your keyboard can make it easy to change. System-managed notifications also allow this change. In these cases, the application may be superfluous. Keyboard Switcher is opensource and ad-free, it survives thanks to your contributions and donations.

Trime
Trime is originally a frontend of open-source Android Traditional Chinese IME, based on RIME input method framework and written in Java/Kotlin with JNI. It is designed to protect the native language of various local dialects of Chinese and is a universal shape-based and phonetic-based input method platform.
