This is what really matters, much more than the IDE itself, they are all VS Code forks (and here, just an extension)
Cursor it's somewhat more interesting than others because they have unlimited premium slow requests, and the fact it is free, makes it acceptable that it's not performing well compared to RooCode.
At the end it's very good because the investors of Cursor agrees to pay with their money your usage of Cursor (if you accept a bit of slow down).
But to be fair, RooCode, or any of the forks, it doesn't matter, as long as the investors pay for the credits.
If Claude would do a $200 unlimited RooCode access, then suddenly RooCode would take a large segment of the market I guess.
If this KiloCode wants to differentiate, this is what they could try.
