@sammyharrison58Worked: Makes running local models extremely easy. Simple install, good model library, and works well offline. Great for privacy and testing models without API costs.
Broke: Performance depends heavily on your hardware. Larger models can be slow or fail on lower-spec machines. UI is basic compared to cloud tools.
@jojobeans1981Worked: i built a full mock claude and used it to make my dev costs virtually zero by running a mac mini wit no gpu or anything just used it tpo store local models to see how effective that truly is.
Broke: my mac mini was like trying to put a golf cart engine in a 747.
