User criticizes Hermes agent's UI and UX as slow and ugly

A user on Reddit's r/LocalLLaMA subreddit expressed dissatisfaction with the user interface and user experience of the Hermes agent. Despite its promised features and positive reports from others, the user found the web UI's aesthetics unappealing and the overall experience, including the TUI, to be slow and tedious. They contrasted this with the Pi mono agent, which they found to be faster and more responsive, allowing for quicker identification of failures. The user is employing Hermes with Qwen3.6-35B and Gemma4-26B models and is seeking advice on how to improve their experience with the agent. AI
