If you don't have regulatory hurdles to jump over then there are a whole raft of open-weight models that perform basically as well as Anthropic's offerings (and, in many cases, better because they're pulling fewer capacity-stretching shenanigans). Check out Kimi, DeepSeek, and GLM series models in particular with something like OpenCode or Pi as a coding harness. If you need a Claude-alike web UI then spin up Open WebUI in a container and expose it via cloudflared so you can use it on the go.

#18I'm sorry, but why is this on the front page with 2 up votes? Do we really need to be alerted every time the Claude API responds with an error?
Yea bc what are we supposed to do with ourselves now.
