I think it’s better to link to their github since the website has references to a premium sister project that isn’t FOSS: https://github.com/languagetool-org/languagetool

I haven’t used this myself but I’m curious if anyone likes it

I like it very much and thanks to the various extensions it’s also trivial to use in Firefox and Libreoffice.

It works on Firefox/Fennec/other forks on Android.

I self host a server. It works on my laptop and android. I like it, but some of the suggestions are bad.

Haven’t used grammarly in years, so I can’t compare.
