Hi, I think too many people are focusing too much on the type of software included in this chart. I don’t think the goal of the person that created the chart was to create the ultimate guide to move to the Fediverse or FOSS apps with all the options available for them. I believe it prioritizes simplicity, and it’s clearly directed towards people unaware that these alternatives exist.

Most people I know don’t even know what the Fediverse is, and I think this initiative is for them.

I know that debating which FOSS/Fedi apps are the best is a big matter of concern for people that are already aware of the problems some platform have. But focusing too much on this debate not only creates more division among supporters of FOSS/Fedi, but it is also drawing attention from the main point: Bringing more people to the Fediverse.

Hi, I didn’t created the chart, and you’re right, Signal is not federated. But I think the big aspect several people have missed about this initiative is not which FOSS option for messaging is the best (which I understand is a big matter of concern for a lot of people already aware of the problems of proprietary apps), but making people completely unaware that there are options know that they can use something that respects their privacy and treats them as humans, not just “users”/“consumers”, which is from my point of view, one of the main strengths of FOSS and Fedi apps.

I’ll start with one: Cambridge Analytica https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook–Cambridge_Analytica_data_scandal

Thanks for the info!

Thanks! I didn’t know about CodeCompanion, I’ll look into it more!

Thanks! I didn’t know about continue. It seems interesting. I was interested in codeium since I saw it can run in nvim too, which is my preferred editor. But running it with a local ollama setup seems very cool, and would definitely be better. Thanks!

I have to do some Lua scripts, and I don’t know the syntax very well, so I was looking for a tool that could help me with some code suggestions until I get more used to Lua.

Then, you have a great point regarding the need of large amounts of data to work. In that sense, likely non of them respect privacy during their development.

My question was more about privacy regarding user data and the prompts you use. I believe that running something locally like ollama (as others suggested) is the best option for what I’m trying to achieve, which is simple feedback about the code.

Sorry, I’m too ignorant and didn’t know about the marvels of ed. It seems absolutely superior compared to everything else I’ve tried so far. It truly deserves being the Standard editor.
