Show HN: Make Your PDF Look Scanned

Is this project different in some way from many already existing solutions that do the same?

I like that it is open source and in theory possible to self host since I really wouldn't want to upload my documents anywhere.

I would really like to know if a similar solution exists that is very easy to run locally or if it runs in the browser it does everything client-side?

I like to think this solution is way more friendly than using terminal for 99% of people. What others have suggested is to develop a stand-alone app for more private documents which can't be sent somewhere else

I didn't mean the terminal. Typing "make pdf look like scanned" into google returns me many websites with same functionality.
