    1. as I just said “Openrouter rankings tend to be skewed by discounts and free models (like Minimax m3 is on a 50% discount) , both on openrouter or through apps like Kilo code which route through openrouter then provide a discount”
    2. also as I said “Most us model users don’t go through Openrouter (most chinese probably don’t either, but the ratio is probably higher for us).”

    There’s several reasons for this. Openrouter providers easy provider switching and model discoverability in exchange for a 5% markup and some latency. Western models don’t have many providers anyway, their users are generally not exploring other models as much so both those benefits go away. Companies, which (outside of china) overwhelmingly prefer going to providers themselves and doing enterprise level contracts instead of going through openrouter. They also prefer western models. Most open model usage comes through individuals trying to reduce costs and/or explore other models, which are going to be overrepresented on openrouter.


  • Misleading headline.

    For six consecutive weeks, Chinese AI models have outpaced their American counterparts in total API call volume on OpenRouter, one of the largest AI model routing platforms, signaling a decisive shift in global developer adoption patterns.

    1. It’s from openrouter. Most us model users don’t go through Openrouter (most chinese probably don’t either, but the ratio is probably higher for us).
    2. Also like half of openrouter’s volume if not more is handled by western inference providers since the model is open
    3. Openrouter rankings tend to be skewed by discounts and free models (like Minimax m3 is on a 50% discount) , both on openrouter or through apps like Kilo code which route through openrouter then provide a discount

    Yes I’m aware the design of the fediverse makes things public. You’ve made that point.

    I think hiding your profile is worth the moderation trouble. Users report individual posts, they’re very rarely going through a person’s profile.

    Mods banning based on activity in other places also leads to the opposite problem. Some subreddits do it and basically everyone hates it.

    Admins would still be able to see it. Mods can maybe see for their comm.

    This is the same argument used against all privacy. The EU wants to kill end to end encryption so they can catch bad actors. No thank you, I’d rather my messages were private and so was my lemmy profile.
