Wait, what's the issue?

3x latency and 4.3x less throughput for the same price - BUT because of agreements with Openrouter, they get picked if your preset is price sensitive, lowest price priority.
Of course this reddit forum also values - DeepInfras offering - of less than half the TPS, for 0.60 seconds less of responce latency! At the same price. Also picked as the default provider, if you set a price sensitive lowest price first please.
No statement from Openrouter.
No possibility with Openrouter to pick a default provider, per model - you jump through five two loops, now barried in the second section of their 4 parts settings configuration, to ban providers service wide - if you want the initial Provider provided throughout its lifetime.
But thanks to the ability of Openrouter Users not to be manipulated by effing bots, this issue was finally identified, and cleaned up.
Oh it was not.
But it only was not - because of those nimble UPSTART Startup companies, that that found that loveley niche in the market of -- LETS SCAM THE OPENROUTER ALGORITHM, that has no direct way for people to prevent this, with a per model setting in their interface.
Hey Openrouter, what do your agreements look to prioritice those scamming AI providers, over the initial provider at a higher Price. AND higher latency.
I mean - I can publish my billing information to provide proof if you want.

YOU are the worlds brightest people. You certainly are, dear gentlemen of Harvard. With your A and A- grades. But really whats the issue here.
This is clearly just how a market is supposed to work.
Or you couldnt be bothered to use a second finger for pinch zoom on your iPhone.

What am i supposed to see/understand from your screenshot?
SpiritualWindow3855@reddit
I think they mean latency/speed. I think.
ELPascalito@reddit
That's a normal trade off, since the compute and servers are not of the same caliber as the Chinese provider, but you get US servers, that adhere to local data regulations
