I’ve been using Ollama with Open WebUi. It works well, looks like Chat GPT and even has a few extra features.
It’s far from easy to install though and agree it needs to be easier. I’m running Ollama via Terminal and Open Web Ui in Docker.
Best model I can run with my hardware is Llama 3.3 72B and it’s a long way short of Chat GPT. Fun though.
The fact even I can do this, shows progress. It’ll be cool if it also incentives normies to start buying computers again, rather just using phones and tablets.
