Deepseek is practically free if you hit cache. Harnesses like reasonix help to alleviate the affordabiliy concern with opinionated oversight.

That is an area where the article did not touch, how realistic are token prices with Deepseek and the likes of it? Is it being subsidized?

It's not subsidized. Openrouter shows multiple providers for the model with American providers like Digital Ocean and Cloudflare. You can run the model yourself and see the unsubsidized cost is the same.
