New blog post: Shakespeare vs. Lovable.
If you're building on Nostr, this one matters. Lovable barely understands the protocol. Shakespeare has native Nostr support. It understands NIPs, kinds, Nostr login, all of it. Purpose-built for the open, censorship-resistant web.
Other highlights:
• Shakespeare stores your code in your browser. We can't see what you build. Lovable retains a perpetual license to use your code for training.
• Shakespeare supports local LLMs so you can build fully private. Lovable does not.
• Shakespeare accepts Bitcoin. Lovable requires a credit card.
• Lovable charges $50/month to export a zip file. Shakespeare: free, always.
Open source keeps you free.
