Ich suche derzeit eine konstelose alternative für die #LanguageTool #Firefox extension es ist schon genial das auch im browser alle testen überprüft werden und man sie sogar per KI umformulieren lassen kann. hat jemand etwas auf lager ?

#LanguageTool retires free tier because they started using AI:

“We have made the difficult decision to limit the use of LanguageTool’s browser extension to Premium users only. The rise of generative AI has made it more challenging to sustainably monetize our offering.”

This sucks — it means either paying for one more service or trying to find another spell/grammar checker :(

#GenAI

F

I guess it's time to self-host #LanguageTool

Spelling and grammar checking tools have been overrun by AI. There's a need for an alternative, but few contenders for the crown.

Upgrade Required to Use the #LanguageTool Browser Extension

No, thank you! You are not that important

@blog Ich nutze #languagetool zu wenig. Daher würde ich keine 4 € im Monat dafür bezahlen. Für Leute, die beruflich viel schreiben ist das aber durchaus akzeptabel.

LanguageTool ends free use of Browser Extension – Here are some Options

LanguageTool is an AI-based grammar checker. They just announced that the browser extension will only be usable to their cloud service with a premium subscription from Jan 2026. My video explains the announcement, and then goes through an overview o ...continues

Grosse mise à niveau de #Grammalecte, qui « ne peut cohabiter avec #LanguageTool, il est nécessaire de désactiver ou de désinstaller l’une des deux extensions, car Writer ne donne accès qu’à un seul #correcteur par #langue. » Et #ProTip on n’oublie pas non plus de cintrer les apostrophes.

🤧When you’re sick and stuck in your room, what better to do than update your beloved project? Here’s Dictionariez v6.4.3:

1. Adapted the translator’s font size on websites with very low rem values. Seems you can't just assume every website sets their base font to 16px or 20.

2. Fixed the z-index to prevent overlap issues on some sites.

3. Removed the upfront privacy consent dialog, it felt intrusive and off-putting. The privacy policy is now linked in the app instead.

4. Added the ability to close the translator by pressing the `ESC` key, an escape hatch for the keyboard-savvy. A small but mighty step toward human-friendly UX.

@CollaboraOffice Is an integration of #LanguageTool (Desktop) planned?

@ankoeln @muellertadzio Ein mglw. relevanter LLM-Skill mag das selber-Hosten auf eigener Hardware sein. Geht auch für Schönschreibtools.

Dabei helfe ich im Sinne der von Herrn Matzat geforderten "Auseinandersetzung mit der Technologie" gerne, denn mit dem Punkt [wir sollten] "zugewandt, freundlich, hilfsbereit und geduldig agieren" hat er natürlich Recht.

Bạn nên tin rằng LanguageTool là một công cụ riêng tư? Mặc dù công cụ này khai trương mã nguồn mở, nhưng team không công khai thông tin về bảo vệ dữ liệu. Chrome extension cũng có khả năng thu thập thông tin. Tạo ra thắc mắc về an toàn khi sử dụng.ieńalêt +\#Privacy +\#OpenSource +\#DataSecurity +\#LanguageTool +\#TinCậy

ltex-ls is great for integrating #LanguageTool prose checking via #LSP into your #HelixEditor! https://valentjn.github.io/ltex/ ... There is also vale-ls, which I have enabled as well. I just download ltex-ls and configure it as an LSP for your .txt and .md docs... that's it!

Gibt es so etwas wie #LanguageTool, aber aus Europa? languagetool.org

Free AI Grammar Checker - Lang...

J’ai un problème avec Eloquent. Pas Eloquent en lui-même, mais avec LanguageTool. Et un problème que j’ai mis du temps à relier à Eloquent.

Quand je suis au boulot, mon laptop turbine. J’ai fini par comprendre qu’en fait c’est quand LibreOffice est lancé. Et en fait c’est parce qu’il fait appel à Eloquent.

Je ne sais si ça à voir avec le fait que LanguageTool est écrit en java, mais il bouffe tout mon CPU quand LO est lancé.

#Urgh Apparently, I cannot get the #FlyCheck #LanguageTool plugin for #Emacs to recognise #AucTeX. The checker only wants to work for work plain #latex mode. This is even after adding LaTeX-mode to flycheck-languagetool-active-modes...

Would folks be interested in a writeup with working scripts for 100% locally #selfhosted #LanguageTool Desktop (#macOS, #Linux should work too) with full grammar checking and sentence rewriting capabilities, taking advantage of the open source LT server, #ollama, and #mitmproxy or #Proxyman ?

The upshot is #private #secure #grammarcheck with #LLM rewrites, like a secure self-hosted alternative to #Grammarly without sharing out every word you type. Awfully #hacky, but it works... #infosec
