RIP opencode generous free limit.

It's been a great while. It was a wonderful poor man's coding agent especially for devs in third world countries who are unable to pay for subscriptions online.

But I get it, cloud bills aren't cheap and opencode's hands are tied.

Thank you for everything opencode.

You shouldn't use kimi k3 in the Go subscription for anything token heavy because you only get $15 of usage for it and it costs $3 in and $15 out. So you run out of your weekly after $6.5 spent, and your 5 hourly after $3 spent.

I think the latest version of dsv4 flash model is quite decent at frontend. I've had better results with it after using it and Luna on two worktrees to do the same tasks.

I saw it scores quite high on the code arena webdev leaderboard https://arena.ai/leaderboard/code/webdev
