All of the chinese labs have been overfitting on benchmark data to game the results for a while now - MiMo and Deepseek are not anywhere near frontier and mostly compete with models like Luna - which they are still worse than.
There isn't much compelling reason to use these unless you are just averse to giving money to openai/altman. A $20 codex sub gives you ~$150 of luna use per weekly limit, while there isn't any good subsidized options for chinese models at all (and the few who were subsidizing, like opencode, rugpulled by reducing monthly limit to $60 to $15 with no notice to users).
rugpull is a very strong word... I agree that they are not great with their pricing/credit communications, but they do state the multipliers quite clearly in various places. And plenty still have $60 or $30.
If you hit the $20 codex 5 hour limit wouldn't that be a good situation to switch to a Chinese model for a bit?
