	tl;dr: A Hacker News user asks whether anyone has fully replaced Claude or GPT with a local model for their primary coding workflow, rather than just experimental use. They're requesting details on setups and performance metrics like tokens per second.
	HN Discussion: ↑Successfully replaced cloud models with local Qwen/Gemma setups for privacy and cost savings ~Local models work for most tasks but still fall back to frontier models for complex work ↓Local models aren't worth the effort given the opportunity cost versus frontier models ~Open source models via third-party inference providers offer better speed/cost than local or big providers ↑Expectations matter; appropriately-sized local models are good enough for scoped tasks
