For those of you who don’t want to use a ChatGPT but want a LLM.

    Very strange article. It lists several front ends, some of which are not open source, as well as some raw models without clearly distinguishing between them. RWKV was mentioned which is cool I guess.

    The first option listed should have been huggingchat, followed by the various local UIs, with a separate section discussing the models themselves.

      I feel like most of these “10 alternatives to xyz”-articles are basically a summary of alternativeto.net. Or they’ve just listed all projects they’ve found with a quick search. I’m almost certain they didn’t install them most of the time.

      This also applies to “comparison” sites, which usually are a list of Amazon affiliate links. At this point, I don’t trust websites with affiliate links anymore, as they’ve never actually tried the products. Sadly those spam sites make it difficult to find actually good reasearched tests.

      Back to itsfoss, they write many articles, and some are good, but they still are blog spam.
