How does it compare to Onyx (rebranded from Danswer, with more chat focus, while Danswer was more RAG focus on company docs/comms)?

So far both projects are quite similar… the only major difference being the search index. Onyx uses vespa.ai for BM25 and vector search, I decided to go down the Postgres-only route.
