For my public work (open source software), which is 95% of my AI usage, I want nothing less than the best – Opus 4.5 today. It's a good tradeoff.
Some people don't realize you can't really get banned from using these models. Just use a proxy like PPQdotAI (npub16g4…kv4h) (there are many others), or Cursor.
For private/personal queries, gpt-oss:20b via Ollama locally, and more powerful models via MapleAI (npub10hp…dxkr) are great options.
