I’d like to decide when I want to use a tool, and do not want the tool to overrule my decision.

Then you won't be able to use someone else's model on hardware you don't pay for.

It is the same when you pay for it.

It's not the same when you run your own model on your own hardware. There are FOSS models that run on consumer hardware. Go for it.

You specifically refered to the payment as one of 3 causes of this (someone else's model and hardware, no payment). That is wrong, paying them does not change that. Notice how your reply makes it seem like I talk about the other 2 causes, I don't.

Not to mention - taking about your own model is totally absurd. That is like suggesting to someone who dislikes touchscreens in cars to build their own car.
