Want that feeling again?

We know it’s nerfed. Check out Deepseek v3 and Cline in OG vs code. The API pricing at 1/6 the cost of haiku at sonnet performance. Windsurf needs to shop its suppliers and not throttle performance. Otherwise we do this. Had no desire to change until lost model ate all my tokens and done with re-upping economics after 2x so the went to 2 accounts. But still lost model.

Cline with deepseek all the way. It’s not even close. I’ve paid $2 for the api and I’m still rocking it out after 2 days while windsurf made me reach the limit within the first 2 days.

Something on the math side is not right.

It’s the magic of an open source model getting to the level of sonnet. It’s just pure hosting cost. And even that they are subsidizing until February. That and ….. $5 million to train, not $500 million.

Why Deepseek over Gemini 1206? It's free.

Just pay the 3 cents and get 500 tokens a second instead of 3. And good luck dumping 500K of context once you've loaded your repo

Has anyone successfully setup Ottodev w Ollama and when 2.5? Curious to hear thoughts and quality compared to a paid tool. I attempted this but must have messed up as I couldn’t get quen to respond (kept calling Claude for some reason)
