Every time there's a thread about models from Meta, there's a flood of comments clarifying that they aren't really open source. So let's also set the record straight for FLUX: only one of the models released is open source -- FLUX schnell -- it's a distillation from the proprietary model that's much harder to work with. Meta's Llama models have ironically much more permissive license for all practical intents and purposes and they are also incredibly easy to fine tune (using Meta's own open source framework, or several third party ones), while FLUX schnell isn't. I think the open source community should rally behind OpenFLUX or a similar project, which tries to fix the artificial limitations of Schnell: https://huggingface.co/ostris/OpenFLUX.1 https://huggingface.co/ostris/OpenFLUX.1
