Re:What happens when you open a terminal and enter `ls’ by geoah on Thursday January 12, 2023 @06:48AM (#34352158)
I just found out about warp, installed it and having a similar issue.

Terms are really weird for something I thought was a terminal app, and their commong questions are talking about "cloud-oriented features" which I really don't know and probably don't want.

I'd be happy to pay (even per month) for a version of this that asks you "do you want to use our cloud features or just the local version" and has different pricing and definetely no login.

Note: I didn't end up actually trying this as I really didn't like the sound of not knowing what my terminal is sending out. They do list what they send for telemetry, but not sure what is considered "cloud-features"

Thanks for the comment. I definitely feel your concerns.

To clarify, all cloud-oriented features are fully opt-in. For example, you have to explicitly share a block for us to store it in the cloud.

You can also opt-out of telemetry (which we use to determine feature usage and plan our roadmap FWIW).

We even have a network log so you can see every network call we make.
