Some parts of these texts are wrong. Did you use ChatGPT?

It's a combination of ChatGPT and my own edits. Which parts are wrong?

Its like everything is just slightly wrong a bit. Please write it by yourself.
As alternative we can just add a link-list at the bottom so that we at least do not missinform readers.

I'll go over it again and try to fact-check it more, and maybe make some entries a bit shorter. I wish there was another more comprehensive list of local-first technologies that you could point to, but this one is actually the most comprehensive I've seen so far :) In any case, it's useful to compare them to RxDB. It's also fast-moving field so my worry it'll be outdated very quickly.

Another round of edits

I made another round of edits. It's somewhat difficult to compare and contrast the alternatives given they are so different and (often) flexible, and giving a pros/cons list is ultimately going to be a bit subjective. Perhaps there are other things you want to mention or leave out, or emphasize/deemphasize.

This comparison maybe interesting as it highlights internals of PowerSync and Electric-Next - https://www.powersync.com/blog/electricsql-electric-next-vs-powersync
