If it runs locally and is openly available, then it doesn’t make much difference to me if it’s a traditional model or a LLM.
It’s not FOSS, but the only thing that stands out to me as non-FOSS is that it can’t be repackaged into a product or service that charges money for use. As a standalone tool, people appear to be free to use it and modify it all they want (subject to the share-alike restrictions), even if they use the output of the tool for commercial purposes.
