2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason

NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Gboard but with network permissions turned off. Works great. Haven't had any issues with an autosuggest and swiping. I don't use autocorrect.
I'm surprised to hear that it doesn't get angry at you!
Probably ignores the setting
It's not a setting, it's a permission. Android will just not allow an app to connect to the internet if it doesn't have that permission.
On regular Android you can't disable this one though, but on GrapheneOS for example you can.
Android and gboard both made by Google. I suspect there are exceptions to any system setting. What with google being evil... Sorry i mean, what with the "one rogue engineer" at google who creates so many google agreeable faux pas.
That's true, but at least on GrapheneOS, where you can actually disable this permission, Google's apps don't get any special treatment. So in that case I'd be fairly certain it actually can't connect to the internet.
