 While not enough good can be said about SillyTavern, it has several weaknesses. These often are the //raison d'etre// for many of the other interfaces which have been created since. While not enough good can be said about SillyTavern, it has several weaknesses.

 +==== Lackluster Mobile Support ====
 +While the web interface allows a computer-hosted (or Android-hosted) SillyTavern instance to run on mobile devices, the experience suffers. Reasons are minor and myriad, but the most significant is SillyTavern's requirement for the webpage to run during inference contrasted with mobile's tendency to terminate pages.
