I’m a little surprised by your description of constant releases and instability. That matches how I would describe Claude Code, and has been one of the main reasons I tend to use OpenCode more than Claude Code.

OpenCode has been much more stable for me in the 6 months or so that I’ve been comparing the two in earnest.

Currently on the hunt for OpenCode alternatives as it's become disastrously unstable in recent weeks between SSE timeout issues, broken Desktop UI and a very, very unhealthy looking GitHub PR queue, I'm out. Since I'm on a Kotlin stack, Junie CLI in ACP server mode is looking attractive.

I use Droid specifically because Claude Code breaks too often for me. And then Droid broke too (but rarely), and I just stuck to not upgrading (like I don't upgrade WebStorm. Dev tools are so fragile)
