I'm 3 weeks into switching from CC to OpenCode, and in some ways it is far superior to CC right out of the box, and I've maybe burned $200 in tokens to make a private fork that is my ultimate development and personal agent platform. Totally worth it.

Still use CC at work because team standards, but I'd take my OpenCode stack over it any day.

I find OpenCode vastly superior. Only thing missing is Vim mode but I saw a fork that someone implemented it. I really like being able to click on a previous message I sent to revert to that point in the conversation. You can revert in CC by pressing Escape twice but the “menu” it takes you to for picking the message is terrible because it only shows your messages. Also, expanding subagent/tools/thinking/etc. blocks is super intuitive in OpenCode whereas CC’s view when you press CTRL+O is also terrible and hard to understand at first glance.

I’m in the process of doing this as well - hackability is such a massive moat.

Care to share what you changed, maybe even the code?
