I want to turn it off entirely, but the “smart” hitboxes for the digital keyboard are also so imprecise that I rely on autocorrect to accommodate my fat fingers.

“Autocorrect,” for instance.
I’m using the Samsung one. I’ve tried a couple FOSS keyboards, but I just can’t get used to them. They always make it super hard to find the special characters or non-English letters like ñ, which is a PITA since half my family speaks Spanish.
I’m using OpenBoard. I have many complaints, but finding ñ is not one of them.
I think I’ve tried it, but I’ll give it another chance.
Edit: I remember now why I can’t use this one. It undoes autocorrect when I hit backspace, which is something I frequently do while typing. There’s a feature request on github, but so far no way to disable this behavior. It’s too bad because I like the layout and feel even more, but I can’t get used to this.

No, I haven’t! Does backspace undo autocorrect though? That is the only reason I haven’t been able to use openboard.

Thanks, I’ll submit one and see what happens!

I like Gboard because of its Hungarian layout, I have all the special letters like é and ö at my fingertips and I don’t have to long-press to type them.
I once out of curiosity checked the Spanish layout, it had ñ there.
Yes, the keyboard I use has the Spanish characters in the layout as well. In fact, it would probably make more sense just to use it if I could get used to the different layout.
