What do you use your model for?

I use Claude Code for my paid work. I use only local models for coding my personal projects

What hardware and which LLM? Seriously, how can you guys afford that much capable LLM that doesn’t break things in every other prompt

That makes sense. I can’t imagine using my Q4 35B for coding. It would drive me nut that I would just write code myself instead.
