I was a part of the GitHub Copilot beta preview, and I do not meet the requirements to use GitHub Copilot now (maintaining a popular repo, etc). Are there any good alternatives to GitHub Copilot?
Amazon CodeWhisperer [1] was released recently, I haven’t used it yet but seems to be a good free alternative.<p>[1] <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/codewhisperer/" rel="nofollow">https://aws.amazon.com/codewhisperer/</a>

individual plan is "free forever"<p>I use it sometimes and it's pretty good. Haven't done a direct comparison with Copilot though.
genie for vscode has been pretty good, I like being able to highlight then ask questions about the highlighted code, I just wish it could do on the fly vector embeddings so size wasn't a factor.
