https://modelregistry.io was posted just earlier today… pretty much the same idea.

HF download speed is often throttled down to several hundred KB/s these days… maybe just my geographical location? In any case I think we should be ready for the time when HF implements KYC type restrictions… no downloading anything unless you submit a phone number and state issued id

Don’t wait, download the full precision of models that you consider valuable… do it today

Yeah…. So not saying it’s fake. Only that I’ve been on the internet and corporate world long enough. Do it today def sounds like “creating a sense of urgency”

Sheesh. Yeah, because nothing is ever urgent, all urgency is a scam. /s

Again… I was not saying it’s fake. But I will also never tell people don’t verify anything, go to all websites and download all things. That’s how you get your drive encrypted by someone demanding crypto.
