nix-shell makes most of this go away, except the ollama files will still be in `~/.ollama` which you can delete at any time.

  nix-shell -p ollama

in two tmux windows, then

  ollama serve 

in one and

  ollama run llama2 

in the other.

Exit and all the users, processes etc, go away.

The Linux binary (pre-built or packaged by your distro) is just a CLI. The Mac binary instead also contains a desktop app.

I agree with OP that this is very confusing. The fact the Mac OS installation comes with a desktop app is not documented anywhere at all! The only way you can discover this is by downloading the Mac binary.

Is this any different from

    brew install ollama
