Same experience for me. I think people need to start providing context for the type of work they're doing when repeating the local model hype. Maybe they're working with a cookie cutter React app and it does the job fine.
I work on Go and Rust mostly. The experience can be wildly different based on model, quantization, and harness. The fact that it didn't work for you doesn't mean everyone is trying to hype local models, people are getting real work done.
