I won't be using these features, but I'm not sure there's cause for concern. The implementation seems very sensible and legitimately privacy-centric. The LLM runs locally and is meant as an very basic email proofreader. The crypto wallet is a likely an extension of the password management tech they've already developed, with transaction features that some people care about.
I can see why some people want these features, and I'm glad there are new alternatives.
This is really well done!
What a weird situation. I suppose it's nice those workarounds exist, even if they're not ideal.
Interesting! I assume it involves a smart plug and an automation script that monitors battery level?
Wow, Graphene really doesn't have charging limits?
I assume this is the discussion you referred to, and I think it broke my trust in the project.
Edit: As far as I can tell, many of the frustrating parts of that thread are from random posters and not devs. I'm still annoyed that such a basic feature is considered controversial.
What scanners do people recommend?
I wish I could remember which, but my friend and I used to love one of the DOS games. The stories fascinated us and we loved trying to break the game. For the memories alone, it's still my favorite.
Tildes has this feature, and I love it. There are a bunch of tags that can be applied to comments, both of the "this is a brilliant contribution" and "this is noise/low effort/silly" varieties.
In general, Tildes culture is high effort, but there's still room for fun. It's nice to see each platform innovating.
It's worth pointing out that they're now a publicly traded company.
Wow, you weren't kidding! Makes me think it's a sketchy add-on, even if it's not.

Thanks, the stories I've read have made it hard to piece together this timeline.
