Score breakdown
Popularity is tracked separately. Support, ads, sponsorships, and tips never affect these signals.
Why it matters
Useful for advanced inference builders who want to test whether distributed, cross-machine serving can unlock models that do not fit on one node: start by reading the proof docs and reproducing a smaller multi-GPU run before planning any serious WAN deployment.

Risk explanation
Shard is aimed at multi-machine inference and assumes several GPUs plus reliable networking, so treat it as an infrastructure experiment rather than a drop-in local-model upgrade.
