Ollama – v0.19.0-rc1

🚨 Ollama v0.19.0-rc1 is out! 🚨

Big news for Apple Silicon users and vision model fans — this release candidate is all about fixing MLX-based vision capabilities! 🍏👁️

🔹 mlx: fix vision capability + min version

  • Restores or improves support for image-processing models (like LLaVA) when running on Apple Silicon via MLX.
  • Updates the minimum required MLX version, likely to align with newer APIs or performance tweaks.

That’s the only change called out in this RC — so while it’s small, it’s a critical fix for anyone experimenting with multimodal models on Macs. 🧠📸

If you’re using Ollama + vision models on Apple Silicon, this one’s worth testing! Let us know how it goes. 🧪✨
