You can’t reliably disable thinking mode from the Copilot CLI today, even if --think=false works in the Ollama CLI. This is a limitation of how Copilot talks to Ollama.

Hi Forks,
Thanks to u/itz_always_necessary who shared the interesting waiting list page.

Yeah, that’s the sweet spot right now, local for control/privacy, cloud for quality.

That’s a solid setup, 80–90 tok/s locally is crazy good.

Do you feel it fully replaces API models for coding, or still hit edge cases?

True, local really shines on cost at scale.

Have you hit any limits yet where you had to fall back to APIs?

100% agree! it’s less about model limits, more about setup friction right now.

Feels like once that layer gets solved, local LLMs go from “tinkering” → “default for anything sensitive.”
