Common questions
macOS: System Settings → Privacy & Security → scroll down to it → Open Anyway. Windows: when “Windows protected your PC” appears, click “More info” → “Run anyway”. To skip these prompts, use the one-line install under “Other ways to install” below.
The page picks it from your GPU: NVIDIA for NVIDIA cards, AMD for AMD cards, “No dedicated GPU” otherwise. Every version includes the CPU engine, so a wrong pick still runs, just slower; download the right one and install over it — models and settings stay.
macOS: move the app to the Trash. Windows: Settings → Apps → find it → Uninstall. Ubuntu: sudo apt remove tutu-compute-node. Installed with the one-line command: add --uninstall to the same line. Models and data are kept unless you also add --purge.
Yes. Paste one command on the server and it installs the web edition with start at boot (as root or a normal user); Docker works too. The commands are under “Other ways to install” below.
No. The node is free, and running models on your own computer costs nothing.
