This is like complaining that the mariadb team has failed to make their tech easy to use. It's a server side piece of software. There are plenty of user friendly GUIs or wrappers for it. lm-studio or unsloth are to llama.cpp as something like phpmyadmin is to mysql/mariadb.

replyHaha ok, like click & run sort of levels? They do package builds on their github releases depending on your architecture (CUDA or not etc.) so it should be close to "very lazy" levels of ease.
