it's spyware? do you know of anything similar I should switch to?

Its basically a keylogger that checks EVERYTHING you type

Why do you think its company is valued so high?

They know everything you type. Even if you dont send it.

(Im not aware of an alternative. But if there is one its probably working the same way?)

i hate to say this, but manually checking your writing is unfortunately the best option. unless it is running locally and open source, it is by definition a key-logger, no matter who operates it. if u need to use it, i would suggest only using it for important and non-sensitive content, and disabling it the rest of the time

I found LanguageTool and it seems to be open-source, is it safe?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

it really depends on your threat model and convenience/privacy tradeoff. i personally wouldnt use it, but i doubt its that bad, although i would suggest to use the webpage only, not the browser extension. at the end of the days theres obviously bigger things to worry about, but every part counts

it seems I can run it locally, but the information in the guide is beyond my knowledge
