So I'm trying to OCR 1000s of pages of old french dictionaries from the 1700s, has anything popped up that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, and works pretty decently?

Take a look at Mistral, https://mistral.ai/news/mistral-ocr-3
I use Gemini for that. Split the PDF into 50 page chunks, throw it into aistudio and ask it to convert it. A couple of 1000 pages can be done with the free tier.
