I use Lumo a lot and usually results are good enough. To be clear though, I do fall back on gemini-cli and OpenAI’s codex systems for coding a few times a week.
I live in the US, but if I were a European, I would be all in on supporting Mistral. Strengthen your own country and region.
That's a bit of a double edged sword. My support goes as far as giving local offerings a try when I might not have done otherwise. But at that point they need to be able to compete on merit.
The problem is that if it's actually successful it'll just be bought by one of the big US based competitors.
