- imtringued 5mo agoNot to mention the only company that would have any legitimate interest in acquiring Cursor would be Microsoft since they could just merge VSCode and Cursor into one product at very little cost.
- roygbiv2 5mo agoBecause cursor gives you access to tons of different models, not just the Claude models.
- tomaytotomato 5mo agoThis is outdated, Claude code can be run against any model you want, you just simply need to update the ENV vars. Or if you have Ollama running locally you can do something like this: ollama launch claude --model glm-5:cloud Or if you feel brave and want to turn your laptop into BBQ ollama launch claude --model minimax:2.5
- anthonypasq 5mo agoor you could just use cursor and select between everything at will every request and not have to manage 15 subscriptions
- _bypa 5mo agoExactly that. I don't want lots of subscriptions. Zed with OpenRouter sounds all right except it'll be much more expensive than a subscription, I fear.
- yreg 5mo agoAfaik Claude has 5 hour rolling window rate limits while Cursor has a monthly window on the $20 plan. The 5 hour window sounds annoying for hobbyists who only use it time to time when they want to dive into some personal project.
