For those unfamiliar, Open WebUI is a self-hosted AI interface, which you can use with local models with Ollama, OpenRouter, etc.

Also note there was a recent license change, which is why I didn’t say ‘Open source’. You can make your own judgements about that here:

https://docs.openwebui.com/license/

See the link in the post for all the changes, there were too many to list and lots of quality of life improvements from what I can tell.

    Urgh I didn’t know about the license change, that’s a bummer. How come every project with ‘Open’ in it’s name goes a similar route and becomes not open?

    Now it’s freeware with available source, but you can’t build anything on top of it.

    lmao at an LLM project whining about anyone “taking our work, stripping the branding, selling it as their own, and giving nothing back”.
