Our take
Pick Continue if developers who want the OSS extension and will point it at their own model. Pick Tabby if teams who will run Tabby on their own GPU (Community ≤5 users, or Team seats). Skip Continue if people who want a maintained commercial IDE agent (Cursor, GitHub Copilot). Skip Tabby if people who want a hosted IDE agent with published consumer cards (GitHub Copilot, Cursor).
