Correct, ChatGPT is proprietary spyware.
If the interface would support self hosted (local/offline) LLMs, then I’m sure people would be much more interested.
Full stack developer and privacy advocate. I like to keep the mentality, if you can program one language well, then you can program in any language!

Wikiless?
The original project was taken down by Wikipedia, but this appears to be an active fork of it:

Legacy software still requires maintenance.
Legacy dependencies still require to be used in new projects.
Dual booting multiple times a day is not feasible.
For those reasons none of my co-workers can fully switch to Linux.
I write PHP on the daily and don’t understand the hate it gets :/
At least I can work on Linux at home while my co-workers are stuck on Windows with their C#
WASM projects can be open source,
just like Android apps can be.
However in both instances the compiled versions of it are not easily readable.
Also you can validate binaries against a shasum to ensure no tampering has happened with them.
WASM = WebAssembly,
this has nothing to do with Java,
but with JS (JavaScript).
JS works with JIT (Just In Time) compilation, meaning every user that requests a web page, will request the JS and your browser will compile that JS on the fly as you request it.
WASM on the other hand is pre-compiled once, by the developer, when he/she is making the code. So when a user requests a WASM binary, they don’t have to wait for JIT compilation, since it was already pre-compiled by the developer.
They only have to wait for a tiny piece of JS,
which is still JIT compiled,
a tiny piece of JS to load in the WASM binary.
This saves the user from waiting on JIT compilation and thus speeds up requesting web pages.
WASM also increases security,
since binaries are harder to reverse engineer then plain text JS.
Due to those reasons,
I believe WASM will be the future for Web development.
No clue why people are hating on WASM,
but I guess they just don’t grasp all of the above yet.
Figure out which politicians are behind this.
And throw them out,
since they are trying to take away your rights (to privacy).
They are looking to apply mass surveillance upon you guys wrapped into a “For the kids safety” package as usual…
Thank you for sharing that link.
And man happy to be on tchncs lately! :D
Hope my and other instances will de-federate from Threads/Meta.
We don’t need that spyware giant in the fediverse…
TLDR: But-hurt C++ dev has a hard time accepting that his favorite language is not memory safe.
You can try to convince the Discord server moderators to bridge their servers to Matrix with something like T2Bot:

That’s what I did when I was running a Discord server,
worked nicely in both directions.
I want HP to shove it where the sun don’t shine :)
Gitea is not really recommended anymore these days, due to being taken over by a for-profit comany + introducing a paid tier.
Nowadays Forgejo is the project to look at.
I never heard about Threema before,
quickly glanced at it’s Github repo,
but I think I prefer Matrix/Element over it.
Threema seems to largely rely om GMS (Google Messaging Service),
meaning that most messages will go through Google’s servers,
albeit end-to-end encrypted for now,
I would not be suprised if Google would participate in “Harvest now, Decrypt later”.
Wasn’t aware of that, would love to hear about it if someome could shine some more light onto the matter :)
If that’s the case, I have to stop using/recommending Session
Sign-up still requires a phone number… -.-"
Checkout Matrix/Element or Session,
there you can actually enjoy privacy by signing-up without a phone number/email:
Edit: Due to Session’s company residing in Australia,
which appareantly has bad privacy laws,
i don’t feel comfortable with recommending it anymore

I don’t trust CloudFlare with my data,
assume they will sell it since it’s a for-profit company.
Meanwhile Quad9 touts about not logging IPs and being GDPR compliant.
