Do you use it to help with schoolwork / work? Maybe to help you code projects, or to help teach you how to do something?

What are your preferred models and why?

    It sounds like we’re on similar levels of technical proficiency. I have learned a lot by reading and going down wormholes on how LLMs work and how to troubleshoot and even optimize them to an extent but I’m not a computer engineer or programmer for sure.

    I started with LM studio before Ollama/Open WebUI and it does have some good features and an overall decent UI. I switched because OWUI seems to have more extensibility with tools and functions etc and I wanted something I could run as a server and use on my phone and laptop elsewhere etc. OWUI has been great for that although setting up remote access for the server on the web did take a lot of trial and error. The OWUI team also develops and updates the software very quickly so that’s great.

    I’m not familiar with text-generation-WebUI but at this point I’m not really wanting for much more out of a setup than my docker stack with Ollama and OWUI

      Thanks for the excellent response! I’m going to give openwebui a try and do some of that trial and error as well - best way to learn!
