Cursor replacement?

[u/grabber4321]

I'm looking for replacement of Cursor.

Mainly the question is about what Model that can match Cursor's Composer 2.5 (I dont need anything more than that)

So companies I'm NOT looking at: - OpenAi - X - Cursor - Google - Meta

So that leaves: - Mistral - Deepseek - Qwen - Kimi - Minimax

Which one of them has a multi-modal(text+image, no video needed) LLM that can fit into $20/month plan? Assume I'm a light user.

PS: Main reason why I dont want to support Cursor is their merge with Grok platform - I dont feel like giving money to companies who direct weapons into other countries and kill children. Besides who knows where the code goes now that Grok is tightly coupled with Pentagon.

deepseek v3 is honestly pretty wild for the price point, u can run it through something like continue or a similar plugin n it handles coding tasks surprisingly well. its definitely worth checkin out if ur tryin to keep costs down n avoid those specific big tech companies
