New gnome version may cause issue to extensions that do not support it. If that is the issues then there isn’t much you can do.

My assumption is always the person I am talking to is a normal window user who don’t know what a terminal is. Most of them even freak out when they see “the black box with text on it”. I guess on Lemmy the situation is better. It is just my bad habit.

I recommend GPT4all if you want run locally on your PC. It is super easy.

If you want to run in a separate server. Ollama + some kind of web UI is the best.

Ollama can also be run locally but IMO it take more learning than GUI app like GPT4all.

Lmao he showed a bunch of well known issue about Tor, then start the usual VPN ads.
