Because if you don't need any of these, any slop implementation will do.

If you ask Claude in Chinese to introduce itself, it will claim it's Kimi :)

The answer is easy, CC is bug for bug optimized for Anthropic models. They don't even test it with other models, let alone provide support for all small compatibility quirks of different provider implementations.

On the other hand, Opencode, Pi agent and other open source tool offer much better support for all models, including open source.

The problem is, they can't. If they offer smaller models for less money, it would eat up their premium offers.

The only way forward for American companies is to push for always bigger and more expensive models while using regulatory pressure and fear mongering (FUD) to discard price effective competition from China.

And yet, MiMo and DeepSeek, even MiniMax, are way cheaper and arguably better, or way better than both Sonnet and especially Haiku.

While you can argue you are ready to pay 100-1000 times the price for Fable or Opus because you need those last 1-2% of edge, there's no valid reason to keep paying the obscene amounts of money for Sonnet and Haiku when alternatives exist.

Use DeepSeek or MiMo. You get best bang for the buck on your response.

Zig is one of the worst targets for LLM generated code. It's nice that Fable has better support for Zig than Opus, but this anecdote is not representative as a general use case.

As much as their propaganda wants us to believe, Anthropic is not 'the industry'.

Looks like they have very effective collaboration with DeepSeek and Kimi. Those three models have been bouncing ideas and sharing R&D innovation, which made all of them improve very fast.

Based solely on quality and price, OpenAI, Anthropic, and other western models just can't compete with the new generation of Chinese open models.

Hm, can I just use free tokens without using MiMo-Code?

OpenCode or pi.dev are enough. I don't like CC-style agent lock-in, regardless if it's Anthropic or Xiaomi doing it.

And EU Parliament can't propose a new law. Or propose to change a law. How super democratic.

Yeah, sure. In the same way I can see only Ferraris driving as taxis, company cars, transport vehicles, used by post, delivery services ...

You and your work are not that special, you are not participating in car races, and you don't need a Ferrari.

Mozilla Foundation is more interested in spending money on anything else than making Firefox genuinely better.

If money gets short, the first thing they would cut would be a browser.

Thankfully, we have Chinese models we can use for a fraction of the price.

Not everyone needs a Ferrari to go for a weekly shopping.

It's dangerous when personal moral and religious beliefs of company leadership leaks into the product itself and get force fed upon customers.

Do you have any evidence supporting the notion that EU decisions process is democratic?

> Do EU voters actually have a say in this kind of regulation?

EU voters don't have any saying in any EU level regulation. The EU regime do basically what they want.
