I guess it’s not unexpected per se, but the peak hours are solidly Chinese daytime work hours with an extended lunch break, and hitting a bit of Europe’s morning. But no American peak hours, unless you count after-work hobby coding (6-9 pm Pacific?) which tells you indirectly a bit that American adoption is not a major driver of revenue for them. Or that the after-work ‘hobbyist’ is the main audience, which is also plausible.

DeekSeek did a strategic b2c mistake. It is always easier to start with higher prices and give discounts than go opposite way (=raise).
But people get used to higher prices. Or they churn out.
For hobby projects there can be local or free models. There are also some caching techniques.

Well I could have done without the improvement if it meant keeping the prices low, might have to find a better model for cheap inference
