[Feature Request]: on website, add submenu with Linux build variants (and explainations)

[oleole39]

Describe the feature

For Linux, Vibe is currently distributed via the Github release page in 3 main variants if we omit the package type (deb vs. rpm) and (Ubuntu?) version (22.04 vs 24.04): regular, nvidia, openCL
However, on Vibe's homepage, only the regular version is proposed. There could be a submenu like the one for Intel Chip/Apple Chip for MacOS builds. It would ideally come with additional information on what differentiate the 3 variants to help the visitor choose.

Thanks. that's good idea but will require some work. I'm trying to think about simpler way to let users know that there's additional nvidia releases.

Just to make it clear here is an ugly mockup (imagine appropriate icons and improved sizing) of what I was thinking about:

An HTML title attribute for each button could in addition explain briefly the specificity of the given version.

When you feel the release list (number of different versions and naming) can be considered as rather stable, I may be able to help working on a PR. Or maybe you have other design plans!

Thanks! We might consider using it that way in the future.
By the way, you can use v0.dev to easily create mockups, even from images. : - )

I have great news regarding Linux releases:
We no longer need CUDA/ROCm or special installers on Linux. I've added GPU optimization with Vulkan, so the regular .deb installer now includes GPU optimization, making it much, much faster.
Additionally, we don't have to treat Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04 separately anymore. The standard Vibe .deb file now works for both versions.
Check out the latest release here: https://github.com/thewh1teagle/vibe/releases/tag/v2.5.0-beta.0

Didn't know but it seems it requires an account though.

Looks great!

Yes, you need to register but it's free

Looks great!

Thanks :)
Finally the releases page much simpler.
