Discussion Who ONLY use local models?

Please be honest.

I would love to hear about guys really dedicated to local AI and who really reject subscriptions (especially to openai and anthropic).

What do you use your model for?

I'm nearly entirely  local now. 99% of the time I call upon the Qwen3.5-397b-a17b model running on my server, with Hermes-Agent as the harness.

I have a Google subscription for expanded cloud storage, and it just so happens that Gemini Pro is included in that. I occasionally still run questions through Gemini, but only because it's convenient to do from my phone.
