ah! This must be downloaded from elsewhere and not from Ollama? So sorry about this.

To help future optimizations for given quantizations, we have been trying to limit the quantizations to ones that fit for majority of users.

In the case of mistral-small3.1, Ollama supports ~4bit (q4_k_m), ~8bit (q8_0) and fp16.

I'm hopeful that in the future, more and more model providers will help optimize for given model quantizations - 4 bit (i.e. NVFP4, MXFP4), 8 bit, and a 'full' model.
