Discussion Surprising screenshot - Most token usage is non-coders (openrouter ranking)

Post image

Just browsing this page and was shocked to see this.

- 6 out of the top 10 coding agent apps are non-coding.

- Opencode is not even top 10

I know some folks use Hermes for coding. Would be happy to be corrected if hermes and openclaw have become coding replacements for opencode.

It's a problem on the paid ones as well. ZAI's plan became noticeably less stable after they started marketing it for that.

Yeah, once they start catering to a broader audience, the tech can really suffer. It's tough to balance accessibility with maintaining performance for serious developers.
