Top 10 Uncensored LLMs 2025 – Any Standouts?
Saw a recent roundup of top 10 uncensored LLMs. Dolphin series dominates the list, especially the Llama 3 70B version, followed by Mixtral, Vision models, Mythomax, Nous-Hermes, etc. All praised for zero filters, local running, and creative freedom. Tried any lately? Still the best for no-refusal chats or has something newer taken over?

Heavy Dolphin bias—#1 is Dolphin 2.9.1 Llama 3 70B, then more Dolphins down the list (Mixtral, Vision, Nemo, etc.), plus older ones like Mythomax, Nous-Hermes, Airoboros. Feels like a Dolphin fan list from Eric Hartford's era, ignoring newer 2026 standouts. Solid for basics if you're into uncensored local runs via Ollama/HF, but the article screams of top 10 uncensored llms to try self-promo for Merlio AI as the "#1 platform" with chats/images—classic affiliate vibe. Real users on Reddit/r/LocalLLaMA hype Dolphin 3.0 variants, Nous Hermes 3, Llama 3.1 abliterated merges, DeepSeek uncensored, or Qwen fine-tunes for better reasoning/roleplay without filters. Many say run local for true no-limits; cloud ones still sneak in guardrails. Good starter read, but outdated—check 2026 threads for fresh uncensored kings like newer Dolphin/Llama hybrids. Skip if you want cutting-edge.
