This. I tried to self-host Piped and it was a PITA. I am experienced in self-hosting but setting it up behind a reverse proxy was next to impossible and basically no guides exist.

Speaking from your friend's experience amirite ;)
I have no idea if the gamers installing it are "unaware" (I never played such a game), however it's still a shitty practice. The average Joe has no idea what the hell a rootkit is and it's predatory to exploit this. Also, no game should install rootkits. For the love of god, it's a videogame.

In my opinion, the Framework laptop is great for people who want the newest and fastest CPUs, whule also getting the customizability and repairability. I mean yeah, I'd buy an older Thinkpad, but programming in C doesn't require much compute power or RAM. However, my graphic design and video editor friends won't make a living using the same machine as I do. For them, the Framework is miles better than any other brand new machine with the same specs (if they want repairability, etc.).
I've had this idea for a long time now, but I don't know shit about LLMs. GPT can be run locally though, so I guess only the API part is needed.
I agree I should have phrased that better. Something like a "secret agent following you wherever you go" maybe?
