What's the keyboard app for android with the most accurate swipe to type?

Because my current default Samsung keyboard can't predict for shit what I'm trying to type half of the time. I tried gboard but that lacks customization options...

SwiftKey. I know, it's owned by Microsoft. But I paid for the app long before Microsoft bought the company. I tried so many other apps to replace it, but prediction wise, I can't find any comparable replacement.

If your OS allows, maybe restricting its network access could be an idea

Yep. SwiftKey sometimes has strange predictions etc but (unfortunately) that one's the best out of the many different ones I tried.

Do you use the swipe function? I used to, but recently it's been a bit horrible

Yes, I use it, but I feel like I have to be slower and more precise than before. Still it works better than e.g. Google's keyboard.
