Is it just my system or does it seem like Cursor >1.0 is laggy. it has the same feeling like a web app where the rendering thread is constantly getting blocked
#asknostr any other recommendation for vibe coding setups that might be worth trying?

I'm all in on Roo. it's improved massively since SEC-04! Might be worth reconsidering
Goose or Void. Both open source.
What is void, I've never heard of it. link?
I'm trying this sucker out.
I am spending some time trying to use opensource models locally, instead of proprietary models. It feels like there is a huge gap between free and proprietary models until this point.
What do you think nostr:nprofile1qqszv6q4uryjzr06xfxxew34wwc5hmjfmfpqn229d72gfegsdn2q3fgpzfmhxue69uhkummnw3e82efwvdhk6tcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszythwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn99urf278z ?
There is. I've been able to use local models for things like summarization and basic chat and tool calling, but I can't get anything as good as claude for coding.
Damn.
And do you have any strategy to cost minimize?
I'm not to concerned about the cost right now since I'm focused on learning this stuff. that said I've stayed away from the agent stuff that seems to cost $100+ a day because I still don't know what I'm doing :)
I feel you. I guess I am still farther away then you are. I am doing the same, learning. I am using llms at work, but not yet at home. There I want a bit more privacy, but local models did not act good enough so far.
Was testing zed recently, pretty cool ide
Aider + openrouter. Fully open source tweakable stack. 🤌
It's nicely iterative. You can get it to make one surgical change and then decide whether to keep it or not.
A good thing about openrouter is it adds a layer between you and Claude so it's slightly better privacy - Anthropic can't directly correlate you with your queries.
