Do they still not let you change the default model folder? You had to go through this whole song and dance to manually register a model via a pointless dockerfile wannabe that then seemed to copy the original model into their hash storage (again, unable to change where that storage lived).
At the time I dropped it for LMStudio, which to be fair was not fully open source either, but at least exposed the model folder and integrated with HF rather than a proprietary model garden for no good reason.
