Ollama stores downloaded models using hashed filenames in its own format. If you've been pulling models through Ollama for months, you can't just point llama.cpp or LM Studio at those files without extra work.

[[Paolo Valdemarin p]] on avoiding lock-in in a single specific AI silo. Bc what is state of the art will shift every few months.

Pricing for Self-HostersSelf-hosters can manage the limits of Viewers/Editors they invite to their Spaces themselves. Those who would like to purchase a name in the Anytype naming system or access priority support, can purchase a membership at the same price as other beta testers.
The free tier is tied to Anytype hosting the syncing stuff. Self-hosters do not have limitations. You do not have a name in the Anytype naming system (needed for IPFS, they have a 'private' IPFS network set-up). This is your lock-in right there. Why would you opt-in to that?
In the meantime, “those who wanted to maintain the status quo have won
