- josh-wrale 3mo agoCc can be used with non Anthropic models.
- re-thc 3mo ago> how can they still use claude? Workarounds aside, it says Claude Code not Claude. i.e. they are using the CLI running any model. You can for instance run GLM with it.

- itake 3mo agowhen i was in hongkong, chatgpt and gemini were disabled. Maybe this has changed though. When I was in China, the corporate vpn (zscaler) routed traffic through hk

- hnfong 3mo agoThis has changed (in a nit-picky way) - Gemini is now generally available to the public in Hong Kong. ChatGPT and Claude are not available.
