I totally agree with this. I wanted to make it really easy for non-technical users with an app that hid all the complexities. I basically just wanted to embed the engine without making users open their terminal, let alone make them configure. I started with llama.cpp amd almost gave up on the idea before I stumbled upon Ollama, which made the app happen[1]

There are many flaws in Ollama but it makes many things much easier esp. if you don’t want to bother building and configuring. They do take a long time to merge any PRs though. One of my PRs has been waiting for 8 months and there was this another PR about KV cache quantization that took them 6 months to merge.
