Features you don’t use still add complexity, bugs and potential security and privacy issues.
- paulmd 2y agoYou can always fork it if you disagree with the direction of development. Everyone of course knows perfectly well that it’s not anywhere near that level of concern in reality, one might say just concern trolling in fact. But if you and enough other people really do feel strongly enough, you can maintain a security-focused fork with… removing an optional LLM thing that requires manually entering a key. Sure.
- soraminazuki 2y agoLooking at the GitLab issue, I have much more trust in the current developer than whatever (pitch)forks that might appear out of there.
- mikl 2y ago“If you don’t want to maintain your own terminal app, don’t criticize” The “love it or leave it” of the open source world. Sorry, I don’t buy that framing. No one should be immune from criticism.
- dcow 2y agoSure, but the gitlab thread is not respectful or constructive criticism. It’s a bunch of knee jerk users saying they can’t use iTerm2 anymore and overtly threatening and/or bribing the devs because they don’t like any product that includes a nice UX to interface with an “AI” language model.
