GitHub Copilot became unusable for individual devs after the usage-based billing change — what are the real alternatives ?? well, I've got a suggestion for an alternative, but I don't think they're gonna like it (it's called "code your own fucking program without stolen labor")

@davidgerard lmao OH MY GOD

We are all in the same boat here. Github was basically paying us in tokens for the last six months while we helped them to iron out the agent kinks and wrinkles. Now we are no longer needed, so we are all basically fired. Also, from what I've seen so far: nothing will come even close to what we had with GHCP.jesus fucking christ. if only there was a word to describe this, but alas, I suppose asking copilot for the appropriate word is just out of their price range now...

@davidgerard I'm sure all the people Microsoft actually fired/laid off cough cough myself cough cough in their horseshit AI race are going to feel tons of empathy for this take.

@cavyherd @davidgerard it's so, so, so good : D
