Collaborate respectfully: We value a constructive attitude, so please be mindful of your communication. If negativity is part of your approach, our capacity to engage may be limited. We’re here to help if you’re open to learning and communicating positively.

Bug reproducibility: If a bug cannot be reproduced with a
:mainor:devDocker setup, or a pip install with Python 3.11, it may require additional help from the community. In such cases, we will move it to the "issues" Discussions section due to our limited resources. We encourage the community to assist with these issues.

Description
Bug Summary:
The all-MiniLM-L6-v2 model is a 22.7M parameter model. Somehow, the open-webui managed to use up 1.1GB of storage for this model by downloading all versions of it.
The open-webui image's size is at the level of Windows11... And now this. It is becoming really hard to host it on edge devices now. Someday I may just find out that my disk was full and the system was down thanks to it.
