    I used alpaca but they made some changes recently that made it confusing and a pain to use. I deleted it after that as i dont use ai much anyway.

    Taking advantage of the fact that this thread became popular, question to all of you guys: do you recommend some other open source LLM front ends?

    There are still active accounts on lemm.ee?

    I am not certain what you mean by online search function. It can connect to the internet but it doesn’t exactly function like a search engine from what I can understand.

    This will probably help anyone unfamiliar with it, since the first search result for Alpaca AI is another online paid AI service which does something entirely different than this. It’s used for AI image generation.

    The main question I have is since Ollama is optional… If you optionally use it, is it still sharing data with Facebook Meta?

      Didnt know that ollama is sharing data with facebook… Why would it do something like that? Wouldnt that be oposite of what it was created for and that is privacy… Where did you get that info?

        It looked like from comments that’s why he made the Ollama integration optional, because some people were concerned since Ollama was built by Meta. It can run without Ollama, it seems.

        EDIT: Doing more research on Ollama itself, I’m unconvinced that it’s sharing any data, despite being built by Meta.

            Meta trained and published the model but it’s an open model. I’m not an expert but I don’t believe it’s sharing data with Meta since it’s just the model they trained, you can download it and run it offline. You’re just using the output of all the training they did on your own compute.
