It gained that position by being first, the first tool that made llama.cpp accessible to people who didn’t want to compile C++ or write their own server configs. That was a real contribution, briefly. But the project has since spent years systematically obscuring where its actual technology comes from, misleading users about what they’re running, and drifting from the local-first mission that earned it trust in the first place. All while taking venture capital money.</p>
