thanks

[thorn grove]

so this makes me think that codenium is better even if copilot was free to use

isn't it too good to be true

[barren wing]

It kinda is, but in the end only time will tell if their current business plan will work out

I hope it does, but I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't for one reason or another

[little willow]

I think it will, with Free + Pro + Team + Enterprise there will be enough granularity

I got free copilot subscription , with my student id , so I was wondering if its gonna be worth it

[barren wing]

Well then both are free... so I guess try out both and see which one fits you better

The only difference I think would be that copilot free runs out when you stop being a student, while codeium free forever... or at least until something happens

[thorn grove]

I have seen a feature to rectify code in copilot , is it in codenium where it reads and corrects the code?

[barren wing]

Like a corporate buyout or something, like what always happens lol

Never used copilot so I don't know how it does things... but I do know codeium has an option to "improve" code you point it to

Can't remember what it's called off the top of my head tho

[thorn grove]

yah , i will be a student like next 5 to 6 years but dont think they woill provide free to students for long tho

[thorn grove]

hmm i see , i will test it out

[barren wing]

Nah... they will probably provide free for students forever

Microsoft always had a thing for student lock-in

[thorn grove]

nice

the thing is comparision is also done on their site

soo

[barren wing]

Well if you go by what's on their site codeium is supposedly better than copilot

[thorn grove]

yah exactly

[barren wing]

Which I'm like to believe... copilot have had several issues with doing dumb things and injecting GPL code and things like that

[thorn grove]

oh

[barren wing]

Since codeium was made later I imagine they intentionally avoided those pitfalls
