Linux is fundamentally not monolithic like Windows, but maybe some DEs could expose hooks for LLMs to use.

There is also the performance issue. Right now the task energy/memory usage of llama implementations is very high, and it takes some time to load into RAM and/or VRAM. It seems Microsoft is getting around this with cloud inference, and eats the hosting cost (for now).

Maybe I am interpreting this wrong, but LORA finetuning is extremely resource intense right now. There are practical alternatives though, like embedding databases people are just now setting up.
