I feel like they both solve different issues well:
reply- If you already HAVE a computer and are looking for models: LLMFit
- If you are looking to BUY a computer/hardware, and want to compare/contrast for local LLM usage: This
You cannot exactly run LLMFit on hardware you don't have.
Honestly I was surprised about this. It accurately got my GPU and specs without asking for any permissions. I didnt realize I was exposing this info.
replyWhy were you surprised?
replyYou can check out here how it does that: https://github.com/AlexsJones/llmfit/blob/main/llmfit-core/s...
To detect NVIDIA GPUs, for example: https://github.com/AlexsJones/llmfit/blob/main/llmfit-core/s...
In this case it just runs the command "nvidia-smi".
Note: llmfit is not web-based.
How could it not? That information is always available to userspace.
reply"Available to userspace" is a much different thing than "available to every website that wants it, even in private mode".
replyI too was a little surprised by this. My browser (Vivladi) makes a big deal about how privacy-conscious they are, but apparently browser fingerprinting is not on their radar.
We switched to talking about llmfit in this subthread, it runs as native code.
replyIt's pretty hard to avoid GPU fingerprinting if you have webgl/webgpu enabled
replyI run LibreWolf, which is configured to ask me before a site can use WebGL, which is commonly used for fingerprinting. I got the popup on this site, so I assume that's how they're doing it.
replyDo you mean the OPs website? Mine's way off.
