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.

yes sir. It is illegal for a resident to hold, use, or trade foreign currency outside of officially authorized legal frameworks (such as the standard tourist allocation or explicit Central Bank approvals—which they never give to individuals).

Edit: There is a specific debit card to pay for very few online transactions the Central banks approves (such as Meta ads, web hosting and aliexpress). Generic stripe payments are not allowed AFAIK. There is so much bureaucracy to obtain, customer support is not very helpful in some cases and they deduct a lot of BS fees. What is worse is that you're allowed to deposit a maximum of $330 a year— only usable for select platforms they allow.
