@thomholwerda almost all Linux desktops appear to be slop-infested as per their own policy,, including KDE, GNOME, LxQt, XFCE, and more.

River is the only desktop project I've found so far that bans AI: https://codeberg.org/river/river#strict-no-llm-no-ai-policy But that one also needs a WM, where the only one alike a regular desktop is perhaps this one: https://gitlab.gwdg.de/leonhenrik.plickat/tarazed But doesn't even have a basic task bar, from what I can tell.

TL;DR: it's looking grim in beginner-friendly desktop land when it comes to LLM use.

The idea is to pull together friends and partners who have some tech knowhow, set up backup nodes, mesh them all together, and have us all be able to backup to eachothers servers which should ensure the data will never be lost
