Since fable 5 went down just some time ago(although this is no longer the case), a lot of fable or Mythos related content including models and datasets were completely killed from HF, it seemed like such a blow to the local development community to lose such important files, this is what inspired me to work on my project, it’s a p2p decentralized distribution network (aka a torrent site) that pulls files from HF and verifies them through sha256, I’ve been making slow and steady progress but so far I haven’t made a single public post about it. I’m genuinely scared of a number of things happening, that the project won’t gain traction, ridicule from more experienced developers, I’m also worried about security vulnerabilities which I’m sure I haven’t fully patched yet…
How do I get over this fear of talking about my project? How do I gain stars on GitHub, and community engagement? After all, a decentralized distribution network is nothing without its peers…
why mention Fable and Mythos then, which are proprietary models? Community hosted models can also be proprietary. Proprietary in contrast to Open Source just means owned and operated by a corporate entity, which can be part of a community as long as the license is not Free.
