Idk. I agree that it's a bad practice, but I also don't understand the downvotes. I think in this context it's valid to share your preference whether to update or not.
Maybe some people just click dislike because it has lots of dislikes? Who knows :)
I use it for explaining stuff when studying for uni and I do it like this:
If I don't understand e.g. a definition, I ask an LLM to explain it, read the original definition again and see if it makes sense.
This is an informal approach, but if the definition is sufficiently complex, false answers are unlikely to lead to an understanding. Not impossible ofc, so always be wary.
For context: I'm studying computer science, so lots of math and theoretical computer science.
Once a detector is good, you can train a model to adjust its outputs to cause false negatives from the detector. Then the cycle repeats. It's a cat and mouse game basically.
The only proper way I see is a system that is based ob cryptographic signatures. This ia easier said than done ofc.
Open-webui is the best self hosted LLM chat interface IMO.
It works seamlessly with Ollama, but also supports other openAI-API compatible APIs AFAIK.
I'm using both in combination with each other and both downloading and using models is super easy.
Also integrates well with VSCode extension "Continue", an open source Copilot alternative (setup might require editing the extension's config file).
Thank you for this awesome list!
I had terrible experience with OSS Document Scanner and Image Toolbox though.
The scanner would just distort every image like crazy!! Would 100% of the time utterly fail to detect the paper edges even against high contrast backgrounds without any patterns and under very good lighting.
I did like 20+ photos and immediately deleted the app, it didn't produce a single usable result.
And image toolbox was just a pain to use. If you compare how you apply filters in e.g. Instagram to this app, the UX is purely frustrating :( Though the app looks nice and has lots of features :)
Sorry for all the negativity 😅 I'll try to be more positive by sharing my favorite Spotify alternative, which is basically a YouTube music client with premium features. The service remains proprietary but the same applies to discord.
