It just functions so much better to use low cost api subs over trying to run anything locally. Let them subsidize this shit for you, don’t abuse your own hardware while it’s expensive af to replace, can spend 100s a year on subs and it’ll be less than the hardware costs for that amount of time.
I like deepseek v4flash, I use opencode go and commandcode, somehow feels not as bad since its cheaper and technically can be ran at home if you can afford it. I don’t care for regular ai chat, feels useless after using agents. Agents are what you expect when you think of ai at the computer, hermes is a solid free one. Those two subs rotating as one runs out should last you a while at 20$ a month. These smaller companies/datacenters aren’t the issue imo, the larger ones like Anthropic, google, openai, etc. are.
You just have to add lemmy (obvious downside of some instances not being named a variation of lemmy means they are less likely to show up still), its not like reddit now, its like when you had to add reddit at the end of your search, nows its just always the first result
I got permabanned, when I delete posts/comments it just shows deleted on the username area, keeps the content up
The people capable of giving those answers aren’t gone forever, tech is prob the one case where lemmy should suffice already, ask the question, you’ll be the first now.
Not when you get validation from the hundreds of times you do it with no issue
