Correct, ChatGPT is proprietary spyware.
If the interface would support self hosted (local/offline) LLMs, then I'm sure people would be much more interested.
I get that, but OP clearly put a lot of effort into this in a good faith, made it open source, and now when he posts it here, he gets downvoted without any comment (as of when I wrote mine) with reasoning behind it.
The thing is I literally said at the very beginning of the post:
that someone who isn't interested in or doesn't use ChatGPT shouldn't waste their time and shouldn't read further.
It's still very difficult to find an adequate Lemmy communities for posting such things. Although GPThemes is FOSS, I didn't consider it appropriate to post on a foss-focused communites because I'm aware that it operates on a closed platform and assumed that people wouldn't like that. I thought 'programming' would be an okay place for this, but it seems I misjudged.
And thank you @stepan@lemmy.cafe for your attempt to get to the heart of the matter.
Who wouldn't want to afford a PC setup and components that would support local LLMs, there are so many benefits to that.
But the reality is that even when I start Docker, my poor PC turns into a smoker 🥲
