I've been an enthusiastic adopter of Generative AI in my coding work; and know that Claude 3.7 is the greatest coding model out there right now (at least for my niche).

That said, at some point you have to choose principles over convenience; so I've cancelled all my US Tech service accounts - now exclusively using 'Le Chat Pro' (+ sometimes local LLM's).

Honestly, it's not quite as good, but it's not half bad either, and it is very very fast thanks to some nifty hardware acceleration that the others lack.

I still get my work done, and sleep better at night.

The more subscriptions Mistral get, the more they're able to compete with the US offerings.

Anyone can do this.

That's true. I'm still on free. How much for the Pro?
