Search for "how to run LLMs locally" and count the Nvidia logos. CUDA this, CUDA that. If you own AMD hardware - and statistically, a lot of you do - the local AI ecosystem has treated you like a second-class citizen for years. That just changed. Lemonade is an open-source, AMD-backed local AI server that handles LLM chat, image generation, speech synthesis, and transcription - all from a single install, all running on your hardware, all private. It hit 216 points on Hacker News this week, and the discussion thread tells you everything about why AMD users are paying attention.
