there are now 3 open weight models that are reaching the quality of the closed ones (GLM-5.1, Kimi 2.6, Deepseek V4). There are two more that can write actually good code and small enough to run locally (Gemma 4, Qwen 3.6). This is not going away, no matter if OpenAI and Anthropic survive or not.

@rin lm studio is the simplest i think. for coding things can be a mixed bag because that relies heavily on tool calls and for some reason nobody manages to support that properly on day one, so you often have to wait a week for the bugs to be ironed out
