LLLM vs TextNova

Chat app compatible with Ollama and self-hosted models. It needs an Ollama server running and adding the endpoint in the model settings. All the information saved is local, everything is private, and no account is needed. It supports message streaming and markdown. It could also work with models served without Ollama, but that has not been tested.
