I could really use a service like #7Cups right now, but not only is it #ProprietarySoftware, but it might use "aggregated" data from chats for R&D. Yikes.

I do have therapists, but I feel like I'd like to first chat unprofessionally with an English speaker anonymously… which is what 7 Cups provides.

Cyrano de Bergerac approach to #CrisisLines care is coming.The software "AI" LLM will feed the volunteer their lines with the "probably right thing to say", based on calibration off unethically sourced data. Complete with probabilities of success, real-time effectiveness scores.

Keep an eye on these places in or near this space.

I have residual eating disordered thought patterns from when my mom died when I was 14. Not wanting to put my partner through every thought, but also wanting help, I decided to try out #7cups bc of its community building ethos. That being said, is it legit, or should I be wary of the tech accelerator who backed it? Is there a #Foss equivalent?
