Last I checked I was only 99.9% sure that nothing was ever being sent to plotly servers. I needed it to be 100%, not even possible for that to happen.
edit: but due to this post I checked again and it seems this is no longer an issue. So +1 to plotly.

Yes, here's the official word on this, under "Can I use Plotly for Python offline, without being connected to the internet?" https://plotly.com/python/is-plotly-free/

In past versions, although free, it's default settings would try to ping their servers. You had to manually set offline mode to False.
I've been using it for years and by far it's been the easiest plotting library (while still being really flexible).
The company is very active in developing, for example recently adding plotly_express, which lets me get charts with one liners like: px.line(df, x='x_column', y='y_column')
I'm not affiliated with Plotly but just curious what people think since I find it to be an awesome library but I rarely hear about it or meet people who use it.
