For those who've been tracking the Oh My OpenCode and Anthropic fight.

Do you have a link to some background? I'm curious why it was banned.

They banned it because it’s the current way tech companies are expected to operate.

This removes the primary advantage of opencode, easy access to many models to avoid hammering a single service. Absolutely unusable to anyone with a pro sub.

It’s not hard to set up a router/proxy for Claude Code to use something else.

It sounds pretty reasonable to me that they sell a subscription without API access at a different price than the one with that feature. It's obviously a very useful feature or the workaround wouldn't exist, right?

To me it sounds like the CLI subscription is a loss-leader designed to get you hooked so you'll upgrade once you realize it's valuable enough to pay extra for the "premium" features. It also sounds pretty reasonable to ban products designed to cheat them out of the difference in cost.

Am I missing some nuance, or is this just internet people being cheap?

That has really been the "OpenCode and Anthropic" fight, OMO is still a tiny player compared to all OpenCode (and other such clients) usage.
