Welcome to LocalLLaMA! Here we discuss running and developing machine learning models at home. Lets explore cutting edge open source neural network technology together.

Get support from the community! Ask questions, share prompts, discuss benchmarks, get hyped at the latest and greatest model releases! Enjoy talking about our awesome hobby.

As ambassadors of the self-hosting machine learning community, we strive to support each other and share our enthusiasm in a positive constructive way.

Rules:

Rule 1 - No harassment or personal character attacks of community members. I.E no namecalling, no generalizing entire groups of people that make up our community, no baseless personal insults.

Rule 2 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.

Rule 3 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.

Rule 4 - No implying that models are devoid of purpose or potential for enriching peoples lives.

Since I like having more than one local LLM to switch between when analysing tricky development issues I decided to try out this new MoE model today. It's a 30B A3B which means it's basically a drop-in replacement for Qwen 3.6 35B A3B with suitable llama.cpp parameters the same.

On their own published benchmark metrics it's supposed to be slightly worse than Qwen, but so far it's not something I've noticed. It's tuned to work well in Opencode which is how I'm running it as well.

Try it out, see how it works for you. I know that there are those who would rather use a Canadian than Chinese model in today's political climate and it does seem to perform better than Gemma 4 at least for me. Just don't forget to use the PR linked from unsloth's description until it has been merged into main.

Ah, ok, hope it helps someone. I’ll probably try the model this week sometime.
