As long as the software that runs locally gets maintained (and ideally improved, though if it is not I’ll simply move to something else), I find it difficult to be angry. I am more annoyed by software companies that offer a nerfed "community edition" whose only purpose is to coerce people into buying the commercial version.

- Imustaskforhelp 1y agopardon me but is Ollama a company though? I didn't knew that actually. And are they VC funded? Are they funded by Y-combinator or anything else.. I just thought it was a project by someone to write something similar to docker but for LLM's and that was its pitch for a really really long time I think
- dcreater 1y agoYup thats exactly what I thought as well. I also found out late and to much surprise that its a VC backed startup: https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/ollama https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/ollama
- Imustaskforhelp 1y agoOh well. Enshittenification is close then I suppose :< Gotta pay those VC juicy returns somehow.
