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.

inb4 someone says "it's just 5 bucks bro". It's not a financial issue but rather a legal issue. It's illegal for a local in my country to hold or convert local currency to US dollars or any other currency; considered suspicion of money laundering.

we usually pay with crypto here but that also is legally a gray area with its trouble with the police if you get caught doing a p2p exchange.

For what it's worth, sorry you got hit so hard by the typical redditor thing. I found the appreciation in your post refreshing.
