Your confusion is understandable since MS has called like 4 different products “Copilot”. This refers to the coding assistant built into GitHub for everything from CI/CD to coding itself.

All code uploaded to GitHub is subject to being scraped by Copilot to both train and provide inference context to its model(s).

Basically having your code in GitHub is implicit consent to have your code fed to MSs LLMs.

There are self-hosted overlay networks. They may be harder to set up, but you prevent your infrastructure from being reliant on the ticking timebomb that is VC money. I’ve heard about:

• Nebula
• Netbird

But I’m sure there are others.

I honestly don’t know where people are getting these Wayland issues. I’m on EndeavorOS with an RTX 3080ti and multiple monitors and it has worked flawlessly for ~2 years now.
