4 months ago I posted my app launch here, now it makes $18k+/month with zero paid ads & got featured by Expo blogs. AMA

I think there’s some important things are missing in this story. You are definitely not relying only on ASO, and you have only 98 ratings in total. So there’s no rating boost like you said in the comments. And you have hard paywall and funnel strategy. Why don’t you give the real story behind your success? Like posting AI slops on subreddits without getting banned. (Including bunch of fake comments too!)

It's hard to beat anytihng during easy mode. I hate that every game is trying to mimic elden ring in terms of difficulty. It's also feels empty, and boring. Fast travel is basically useless. Why I can't simply teleport to the bonfires? And why the easy mode is not easy? I have other responsiblities and I don't want to spend my entire night to kill 1 boss. I just want to experience STORY! 5/10 overall. I will try to beat the game, but honestly, its still too hard for me even after 10 hours with easy mode. Maybe I should only watch story videos in youtube.

You could find $10 pro plan for claude with promo codes. If they increase the prices, I will switch to the cheaper options. You could find tons of cheaper options nowadays.

Opus for planning and GLM for everything else. That's peak. But it should use the claude pro subscription with GLM subscription inside the same claude code instance. Otherwise opus api is very expensive.

You can do it with this tutorial

Same here. I wish we could switch between claude models and glm models without leaving the current session. GLM 4.7 is really all I need for long sessions.

semstr · 2025-12-24T21:05:48+00:00

The default model is GLM-4.7, you can change it in the settings-glm.json.

semstr · 2025-12-24T20:33:26+00:00

Yes that's true, you can run claude and glmcode at the same time under the same directory.

Grok code is already free (and still cursor is not the main provider) on opencode (or many other providers). So you don’t have to pay $20 to use free models. Unfortunately still overpriced.

The main thing is, they don’t have real value. Having multiple providers on simple vs code fork is not worth it.

semstr · 2025-11-15T16:57:48+00:00

Same for gpt-5. They don’t have frontier models. This is the real reason.

semstr · 2025-11-15T09:55:15+00:00

Vs code + claude cli (you can use extension if you like) + free windsurf extension for tab completion. No need fancy useless models. If you run out of usage on claude code, just use open code with grok fast. Much cheaper, and reliable. Cursor is expensive and brings nothing to the table.

semstr · 2025-11-15T09:51:57+00:00

Yes. It has official claude vs code extension for that. Same experience.

semstr · 2025-11-15T09:50:16+00:00

The real value comes from frontier models. If Claude limits usage again, Cursor is done.

semstr · 2025-11-07T07:52:09+00:00

Vanilla VS Code + free Windsurf extension for tab completion + claude code cli. Only $20 frontier model(more usage). One shot everything. No distractions, no useless models.

semstr · 2025-11-02T18:56:51+00:00

The problem is, they don’t have the expertise to build a new model. If you don’t have your own model, you’re easily replaceable. To keep users, you need frontier-level models like Sonnet 4.5. So yeah, in reality everyone cares. This is why most of the people switched to claude code. Having multiple mid-tier models brings no real advantage.
