I'm surprised nobody is mentioning how cheap copilot pro is. $20 and you get all you can eat inference without using your own api key for the models on vs code agent mode.


Copilot pales in comparison to Cursor Pro. I've trialed it three or four times in the last two years and stopped using it after a few days each time. Honestly, I have no idea why anyone pays for it given the alternatives.

My only wish is that Cursor had partnered with Zed. vscode isn't enjoyable.


FWIW,you can log in to github copilot with Zed and it will use your copilot subscription instead of needing to pay for api calls.


I'm sure it is but cursor plus API usage is out of reach for my hobbyist usage


I’m on Pro+ and get rate limited heavily. 1-2 hours of semi heavy use and the brakes kick in. I can’t stay productive in it because this always rips me out


All copilot models feel lobotomized. It’s like they’re deliberately running them at low performance or something.
