Why z.ai and not an ollama pro plan that can use all the open models? Real question, not snark. I've only ever done ollama and wonder what I'm missing.

Because I bought a year's subscription in December, when it was still $6/mo :P

I have decently capable hardware, but stuff like Qwen 3.6 and Gemma 4 still doesn't compare to agentic editing with a frontier model. Right now, OpenCode's $10/mo "Go" plan is what I'd be looking to try once my year expires.

The z.ai was stupid cheap during the great anthropic opencode rugpull.

I guess if it works for you, great; that’s why competition is a good thing.

Enjoy.

Have never heard of it, thanks for the info
