Copilot is great, but a hundred bucks for what is basically a smart autocomplete seems a bit much - mostly, I hate the fact that the code is constantly transmitted to github (my repos are mostly local) - are there any reasonably convenient options for doing this without github looking over my shoulder all the time? I’m using VSCode but not wedded to it.
thanks - that looks like full independence and would be good to try. I’ve been using codeium, which was suggested here and it seems as good, if not better than github copilot and it’s free for solo developers.
I appreciate you taking the time to make the suggestion - I’ve learned quite a lot about open source software options in a few weeks here on Lemmy and find it’s been an excellent resource for technical info and suggestions.
