It runs locally on your machine rather than making use of a web service, and has a focus on speed & privacy. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ObsidianMD</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ObsidianApp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ObsidianApp</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Harper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Harper</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Grammarly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Grammarly</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Privacy</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Productivity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Productivity</a>

HoldMyTypeChatGTP is a completely different kettle of fish.It doesn't check grammar. It generates text in response to a question. It won't identify errors in spelling or punctuation. It will try to respond to your text and is intended to be able to work with questions that contain errors in Grammar.It has been trained on a wide variety of sources. This enables it to respond to questions about grammar, and it normally does quite well! However it doesn't know anything. Like many native speakers, it doesn't understand its own grammar rules. It will spout grammar facts from its training, but those fact can be confused or contradictory.For example, you can ask it if an adjective is an adjunct. There is a difference in terminology used by linguists, so the real answer is "You should get your definitions clear" Some linguists consider "adjuncts" to be elements of the clause structure, and not elements of the phrase structure (and hence adjectives are not adjuncts) But others use "noun adjunct", for example (and hence attributive adjective are adjuncts).Grammarly doesn't care about names. It will try to identify incorrect use of adjectives, but it doesn't care if they are adjuncts or not.ChatGPT will have an opinion, but since there is genuine variation in the definition, and it is trained on both it is likely to pick a definition, but then, if challenged, it will change its mind.ChatGPT is not designed as a grammar checker, it doesn't check grammar.<a href="https://ell.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/5886/is-chatgpt-good-for-fixing-grammar-errors-compared-other-tools-like-grammarly" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://ell.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/5886/is-chatgpt-good-for-fixing-grammar-errors-compared-other-tools-like-grammarly</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/chatgpt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chatgpt</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/grammarly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#grammarly</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/english" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#english</a>

Brian Greenberg :verified:⚠️ Grammarly Is Quietly Breaking Websites—Here’s HowWeb developer Daniel Bushell discovered that the Grammarly browser extension injects global CSS into every website—even if it’s not actively being used.🔍 What’s happening? ・It overwrites --rem on :root, breaking layout calculations ・It bypasses Content Security Policy via stealth styles ・It injects a <grammarly-desktop-integration> tag on every page ・It even loads 20 unnecessary font variantsBushell’s fix? Renaming his variables to --🤡.This raises bigger questions about how browser extensions interact with the web—and the need for more respectful, sandboxed designs.👉 <a href="https://dbushell.com/2025/03/29/et-tu-grammarly/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://dbushell.com/2025/03/29/et-tu-grammarly/</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/WebDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WebDevelopment</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CSS</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Grammarly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Grammarly</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/BrowserExtensions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BrowserExtensions</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/UX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UX</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/DevCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DevCommunity</a>

PeƚeɾIs there a good <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/grammarly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#grammarly</a> alternative? I like some of the features like understanding the tone of how a message might sound which I sometimes struggle with, and the odd re-structuring of a sentence.What annoys me about it is that they are trying to push the pro version anytime I go to correct something and I wouldn't mind but 30 euros per month is outlandish...

Andreas Bulling@loriemerson@lurk.org @vortex@nettime.org Very useful indeed. It'd be so important, also to limit tech billionaire influence and protect our democracies, that as many people as possible used these alternatives.I have been mainly using <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/OSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OSS</a> for decades now and did not have many "hits" on that page anyway. But with <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/languagetool" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#languagetool</a> I found a very nice replacement for <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/grammarly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#grammarly</a> that I can most highly recommend - works like a charm!
