Google keyboard was even better that Swype back then. Only when they started trying to make it smarter by scrubbing all our text input did it start getting worse. However they need the pretense to collect all our input so they're never going back.
Gboard was first introduced in 2016, I'm talking 2010-2012.
Google keyboard predates gboard. App view here says 2013, so not quite that range but close.
