A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Can y’all point me in the right direction on why grammarly is shady? Maybe that premium account was a bad idea, but I’ve loved it for the last few years to help me be a better writer.
I wish I could upvote this 2x. I'll be trying some alternatives. I get they have to analyze the text to make suggestions, but then seriously, ditch the data.
I was lazy and clicked through with the "big, common name should be OK" thought. *I'll take my sticker of shame on this one, and try to do better in the future.
I'd say mainly privacy concerns. Everything you type is sent to Grammarly servers. I'm not sure what is done with that data.
