Local isn't new for me. I am still coding my stuff, but Qwen3-coder:30b on my old rig with a gtx 1070 16gb RAM does wonders for me.

I mostly use it as a google search if I forget a thing, or doing the boilerplates.

I am using a mix of a non harness chat for the reply speed, and opencode / vim-ai for my boilerplates.

$0.00 / month. That's the budget.

Have you tried qwen3.6 or pi?
3.6 is too slow on my old rig for some reasons, so I went back to qwen3-coder.

I did try 3.6 on my main desktop. It was good, but I didn't see much differences than coder, so I am still using my old rig.
