    I guess they harvested enough user data by now and don’t need to give it away for free anymore, well it had some uses but not enough for me to pay for

    After reading this, I installed the local server and just routed the extension there. Took less than 20 min.

    My only concern is the desktop app has no server selection setting.

        Just checked, and it’s nice to use. Too bad it only supports english for now, but still a good alternative.

    Ooof. I think it’s a pretty useful tool, but not worth anything close to what they’re asking for a paid subscription.

    People here don’t seem to understand that this is only for the browser extension, you can still use the site directly…

    Well, Since their alternative Quillbot does not support Firefox. I might switch to Grammarly
