Reddit r/LocalLLaMA News

Summary

A Reddit post summarizes the open models released in May 2026, calling the month underwhelming despite releases like Ring, Command, StepFun, and LFM, and expresses anticipation for upcoming models like MiniMax-M3.

[After overwhelming April](https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1t06y43/open_models_april_2026_one_of_the_best_months_of/), May seems underwhelming even though we got Ring, Command, StepFun, LFM models. Hoping for great June(We're getting MiniMax-M3 in 10 days). ^(PS : Took me 15-20 mins to gather these models & generate this graph. BTW) **^(this graph is not a benchmark)**
