I have been using the Ollama GUI on Windows since release and appreciated its simplicity. It recently received an update that puts a large "Turbo" button in the message box that links to a sign-in page.
I'm trying Jan now and am really liking it - it feels friendlier than the Ollama GUI.
And ollamas founder was on here posting that they are still focused on local inference... I don't see ollama as anything more than a funnel for their subscription now
I truly don't understand why it's supposed to be the end of the world. They need to monetize eventually, and simultaneously its userbase desireg good inference. It looks a complete win-win to me. Anyone can fork it in case they actually turn evil once it'd happen.
I mean, it's not like people enjoy lovely smell of cash burning and bias opinions heavily towards it, or is it like that?
