Deepseek and Muse are my go to for cheap. both work perfect for basic and mid tier tasks

What about mimo v2.6 pro?

  • I’ve jumped between mimo and ds quite a bit lately. Mimo seems to be slightly better in terms of what it can achieve in terms of end results. But it gets there very slowly, and in a super convoluted way. Sometimes it’s almost frustrating to read its reasoning. Also I’ve noticed that it tends to not use tools in the harness as much as other models.

    I usually default to ds, and if it gets stuck try mimo but usually just for fire and forget tasks. After a bit I come back and see what it did.

  • Usually great but it infuriates me sometimes with what it does. DeepSeek is more consistent and certainly faster.

I mean... I ported some of my childhood Finnish shareware games for Linux and Rust with DeepSeek V4.1 Flash. It took about six hours of spelunking and finally I was pretty happy with the results! I did it twice. Tokens for both of the games were around 3 euros.

Muse is fantastic for open source work. At least 1.3 was, for its price. Wonder makes less economic sense.
