Maybe I need to upgrade from DeepSeek Flash 4.1.

How are people using 5.6 Sol? API pricing? Subscriptions?

I like because DeepSeek 4.1 Flash because I never experience quota issues, and it's still cheap and mostly good enough.

Even on the $20 or $100 subscription I would be surprised if deepseek was still cheaper than OpenAI or Anthropic because the subscription usage quota is subsidized about 10x compared to API costs. $200 sub was the “best deal” but it’s paused for new signups right now.

		I don't think I spend more than $20 USD on DeepSeek though? I'm happy to spend more for a better product, but mostly I just want to avoid quotas, since it turns me into an addict, feeling like I have to be ensuring the bots are active. I like that with DeepSeek's API pricing that I can not sure it for 2w, and not feel like I've missed out. 2w is a long time, but I only use it for personal stuff, and I often go 1-2w without using it due to other commitments.
