"Am I the only one who finds it a bit sus that @ollama claims new support of models (dbrx), but all they do is update their llama.cpp commit

What makes it worse for me is that they don't thank or kudos @ggerganov and the team at all in their README nor in any acknowledgment. Ollama wouldn't exist without llama.cpp."

mariuz··on Linux has achieved a 3% desktop market share
I will quote Linus :" So I think that in order to make it in a consumer market, you really do need to be pre-installed. And as Android has shown, Linux really can be very much a consumer product. So it's not that the consumer market itself would necessarily be a fundamentally hard nut to crack, but the "you need to come preinstalled" thing is a big thing.

And on the laptop and desktop market, we just haven't ever had any company making that kind of play. And don't get me wrong - it's not an easy play to make.

That said, I wouldn't dismiss it either. The whole "ubiquitous web browser" thing has made that kind of consumer play be more realistic, and I think that Google's Chrome push (Chromebox and Chromebooks) is clearly aiming towards that.

So I'm still hopeful. For me, Linux on the desktop is where I started, and Linux on the desktop is literally what I still use today primarily - although I obviously do have other Linux devices, including an Android phone - so I'd personally really love for it to take over in that market too.
