i don't use local models, i just use the APIs of cloud providers (eg fireworks, together, friendli, novita, even cerebras or groq).

you can get subscriptions to use the APIs, from synthetic, or ollama, fireworks.

I might be missing it, but does fireworks actually have a subscription? All I saw was serverless (per token) and gpu $/hr.

And since I saw a few other comments talking about these, do you have any preference on different cloud providers with ZDR? I look every once in a while and want to switch to completely open models and/or at least ZDR so I can start doing things like summarizing e-mail. I'm thinking I can probably split my use between some sort of cloud api and claude code for heavier tasks.

Whats the big difference then? You can get a lot of tokens for 20$ and not everything is a state secret i'm doing.

But if i would use some API stuff, probably openrouter, isn't that easer to switch around and also have zero konwledge savety?

i think that privacy is good for wellbeing. it may be this is a dying point of view.

It is for sure but running your own email is so time intense that i gave that up 10 years ago.

i then decided to trust one company with most stuff.

Also as I said, I would use something different for my personal stuff. But i'm waiting for the right hardware etc.
