Copilot is great, but a hundred bucks for what is basically a smart autocomplete seems a bit much - mostly, I hate the fact that the code is constantly transmitted to github (my repos are mostly local) - are there any reasonably convenient options for doing this without github looking over my shoulder all the time? I’m using VSCode but not wedded to it.

https://github.com/fauxpilot/fauxpilot is an OSS alternative, don’t know how viable it is. https://codeium.com is commercial, but has a free tier that seems to offer most of what CoPilot offers.
