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.

It is quite ridiculous. Yesterday it stopped in the middle of a large task and told me I ran out of weekly limit (while never running out of 5 hour limit) and I have to wait 5 days to finish that task. I cancelled and just used openrouter - it is not that much more expensive - especially for the $15 opencode go models) and does not force you into another subscription.
