    i hate to say this, but manually checking your writing is unfortunately the best option. unless it is running locally and open source, it is by definition a key-logger, no matter who operates it. if u need to use it, i would suggest only using it for important and non-sensitive content, and disabling it the rest of the time

      I found LanguageTool and it seems to be open-source, is it safe?

        it really depends on your threat model and convenience/privacy tradeoff. i personally wouldnt use it, but i doubt its that bad, although i would suggest to use the webpage only, not the browser extension. at the end of the days theres obviously bigger things to worry about, but every part counts
