Are you using Mistral? Is it good? I wasn't able to find benchmark comparisons with Opus

I like it, but I haven't used Opus so it's hard to compare.

From the benchmarks I've seen, Mistral's offerings are right up there with other open source options, but not quite at the frontier with closed source models.
