Second this. Wanted Linux as Windows user. Currently on Linux Mint, got it a few months now. Really easy to use, and allows you to experiment with the console if you'd like to, but almost never necessary. So far, I haven't encountered any problems with it (apart from a total lock-out while trying some weird shit in the console with printer drivers, but printers are evil anyway, so I'll give it a pass for now lmao)
Good to have, I'm a bit of a programmer myself :)
Do you happen to know how this self-hosting would work? Can I run it at my desktop/phone or even a raspberry pi? How is the quality of generated results compared to ChatGPT?
As you may know, ChatGPT collects a lot of data on the users for the improvement of their AI, but this poses risks in its own way. I was wondering whether there are privacy alternatives to ChatGPT. Perhaps on F-Droid or Aurora/PlayStore, or for Linux.
Are there any alternatives you know of? Or are there other ways to interact with ChatGPT without giving personal information, such as a privacy focussed front-end?
Got a few:
https://everynoise.com/ You can find A LOT of music genres here. Genres next to eachother resemble one another. Figure out what you like, and what genres are close to it. Clicking on the >> will take you to artists in this genre, or search for artists in the upper right corner and see what genre they fall under.
https://clickclickclick.click This one is about privacy, see what a browser can track. If you don't know much about pixeltracking, this one is a fun way to learn (and a little creepy hehe)
https://suno.com/create Create your own songs with an AI, just throw in lyrics, a genre, and you are done. A fun way to troll a friend by throwing in an old conversation
https://darknetdiaries.com/ Haven't looked into this one myself, but these are true stories on the darknet, recommended by a friend of mine.
Welcome to the internet, where we only read the title, and what we'll base our opinion on.
This could also be seen as a form of misinformation. CNN can technically say "Yeah, but if you read the entire article...", of which they know many people won't.
