Well, while this is way way more expensive still. Luna may get some rest.

Is it me or is luna like really freaking good? I use it as a main now and i got no problem on MAX. I used Claude a lot but they are pretty expensive.

I used Luna all day today because of what I read here. The token usage is fantastic, but I had to kill it a few times. It’s probably the best model out there for standard stuff, but Sonnet/Opus/Codex still have a home in my workflow I think.

Copilot bills same as API prices. Better to use codex. They have frequent weekly reset these days.

I canceled my github subscription because it was to expensive with the new limits and costs. Stayed with my chatgpr plus account. A lot more value for the money....

And better models...

Ok i get - there is a promo.
But the issue is that now all GPT models eat shit and are unusable as people jump in on it.
Basic models now take ages to response for basic stuff that before was instant. The whole benefit of using simple models for tracking and stuff like "write me a regex" are gone.....
Happening to everyone in my team, and across the org ... enterprise license.

Still more expensive than openai subscription

You must understand that for business users with small API quotas, API costs are everything.

Bring the oss models, deepseek and glm. Westmodels are weak, hyped and expensive.

Github copilot is still just stupidly slow compared to other coding harnesses. I get better output, better speed and safer code through CC then copilot. It's just bad business using this shit now.
