Ahh, I see lol
I’m not sure I understand at all?
It’s fully open source, can run/connect any number of fully local models as well as the big name models if a user chooses to use them.
Can you expand on what you mean?
That seems like a pretty naive and biased approach to software to me honestly.
Ease of use, community support, feature set, CI/CD etc…all should come into play when deciding what to use.
Freedom at all costs is great until you limit the community development and potential user base by 90% by using a completely open repo service that 5% of the population uses or some small discord alternative.
So then the option is to host on multiple platforms/communities and the management and time investment goes up keeping them in sync and active.
As with most things in life, it’s best to look at things with nuance rather than a hard stance imo.
I may stand it up on another service at some point, but also anyone else is totally free to do that as well. There are no restrictions.
