Hacker News is in an endless cycle of not understanding how important user experience is, even often more important than the underlying technology itself.

The real effort is done by llamacpp, ollama is unnecessary layer on top of it and cashing in investor money.&lt;p&gt;This behavior is totally unacceptable and I am boycotting ollama and every ollama based stuff. I am not going to use ollama in my client projects anymore too.</text></comment>
