Well, I bought 1 year of GLM’s coding plan for basically nothing ($50?) last year.
…I now see its many hundreds of dollars, and its API is so busy it gets throttled.
Seems like devs are catching on.
FYI, for anyone interested in this stuff, I would suggest 1 year of Xiaomi’s coding subscription.
MiMo 2.5 is fantastic, beyond what benchmarks show. It’s a genuinely useful general purpose model with better prose/world knowledge than others. It’s quite uncensored. It’s not just some deep fried agent, and it’s dirt cheap right now because no one has realized it yet (kind of like GLM 6 months ago).
And before you ask, I use local models too. I sometimes run a custom IQ3_KT of MiMo 2.5, in fact, which is how I figured out it’s good. self hosting is the way. Gestures at the forum we’re on
But for stuff where privacy isn’t so critical, it’s still nice to have a year of an unquantized, fast API of a huge model for like $50.
Yeah I legit am fine with putting xiomi and DeepSeek keys into applications because they are so cheap.
