We're going to need default hard budget caps on pretty much everything

    Learnt recently DigitalOcean does not have hard budgets limits, only emails. I am surprised and torn between this being intentional vs. them not caring.

    One solution is banking apps that let you create extra cards and assigning hard limits to spending. Wise & Revolut apps can do that.

    Have to mention OpenRouter also, I logged into OpenRouter through pi, on the auth screen it optionally let me set a limit which is very smart and user friendly.

      It’s obviously all intentional and should be reason enough to not use a platform.
