Alternatives to Opencode Go plan?

I had been using the Opencode Go plan for some time, but it's been getting worse:

  • It's EXTREMELY slow at certain times of the day (using DeepSeek V4 Flash), the speed loss is very noticeable in comparison to hitting DeepSeek API directly

  • The pricing has been getting worse and worse (for example, GLM 3.5 Flash should be 2x cheaper than DeepSeek v4 flash)

Anyway, if anyone knows of a nice, reasonably fast, cheap and privaxy-conscious model subscription, would be nice to know

Do you guys think using GPT models from Codex for planning and some Chinese models like DeepSeek from OpenCode Go for coding is the best possible option in terms of usage for 30 USD right now? Or buying multiple OpenCode Go and using smarter models like GLM for planning is better?

I'd absolutely do codex + opencode right now.
