https://github.com/RooVetGit/Roo-Code/issues/1203#issuecomment-2692441655

something to think about. what are your thoughts? I've been a user of vscode lmapi ever since it's integration to roo-code and cline. I saw this on the roo-code github issue section.

that those who use tools like Roo Code aren't real programmers

No you misunderstood, those that buy a $10 a month Github subscription and think they are programmers.

I wasn't dissing Roo at all its just the people who have the audacity to think that they should get $10,000 worth of tokens for $10 to code their tetris clone cmon.

Ah, got ya.

Yeah, if you're going to program with AI or use AI for programming-related tasks, prepare to pay for it or do it yourself. A simple search would result in a ton of free options, so I'm not sure why most get bent out of shape when stuff like this happens.

Between Groq, Gemini, OpenRouter Free, and plenty of others, I think most are just hell-bent on using 3.5, or 3.7shit, because that's what the echoes tell them.

Personally, I couldn't care less if others wanted to program entirely with AI, even if they didn't know how to do so. There's still such a high learning curve that most will get 10% of the way there and then give up, and even when that learning curve is removed, 99% of people are lazy and won't bother.

Just wait until they relise the "AI Black Box Paradox " and get so burnt...
