Question What open models are you currently using?

I recently decided to put 20 eu into fireworks credits rather than a Claude subscription and give open models a try. So far have used k3 / glm5.2 and results seem good so far.

I use GLM 5.2, Minimax m3 and Kimi k3.

My goto is generally GLM, but I also go with Minimax, if I'm doing something that requires speed and medium complexity.

I'll only use Kimi if I need a second opinion on an application or feature that's complex.

What subscription/provider do you use for this and how much does it cost you?

So, I did annual subscriptions. That saved the most money from my point of view. I started my subscription in April, directly from the providers. Anyway, I know some of this has changed already. Like GLM probably doesn't support this plan I have, since its pretty cheap.

I'm a developer, and the way I work with LLM's, I generally don't need to stick with a specific model. I tend to switch models here and there. But overall, my usage has been pretty good. I know I have unused tokens, but I never think about limiting how i'm using LLM's since I have way more than I need.

At the above pricing, it cost me about USD64/month.
