Hey all! Can anyone recommend a good open-source, privacy respecting internet speed tester.

I was using Librespeed.org but over the last few months I've noticed they bait and switched it with AI code, sponsorships and have removed their privacy disclosure page.

I'm struggling to find something trustworthy, so any suggestions would be nice, thank you!

LibreSpeed and OpenSpeedTest are both open-source, self-hosted speed test tools that let you measure internet or LAN performance without relying on third-party services. While they offer privacy, control, and flexibility, they also come with notable drawbacks...
