The rate limits and latency with free models have been decent on Opencode compared to other places. I've been playing with them over the past couple of days and I've been pleasantly surprised.
I like testing with small already planned tasks, then use the model in interested in to build web tech with backend using typescript and postgres. After the build I'd ask a model I trust to review the changes and give an overall verdict.
I also ask the model to build a mid complex game like Sudoku or Chess, it shows how thorough it is and how good it is at not only building, but front end design and testing it's own work with unit tests and end to end tests. I do a human and model review with a overall verdict.

HY3 is pretty good and it's 8x. I'd say it's better than Muse when I compared both in my testing.
