MLX is faster because it has better integration with Apple hardware. On the other hand GGUF is a far more popular format so there will be more programs and model variety.
So its kinda like having a very specific diet that you swear is better for you but you can only order food from a few restaurants.
But you can always fall back to GGUF while waiting for the world to build a few more MLX restaurants. Or something like that; the analogy is a bit stretched.
Depends.

Yeah I'm terrible with analogies.
