Wow, and I already prepaid for the year. Figures.

It really seems like the cheap inference is coming to a head very quickly.

I have a GitHub Copilot subscription and this really sucks.

I subscribed two months ago, frustrated with Claude Code and their tight session limits.

The Copilot offer was unbeatable 100 dollars for a 12 months plan, if I remember correctly.

It was pretty clear they were losing money, but hey, it's Microsoft and they need customers, so a competitive push on pricing is expected.

Let's see what these limits look like and I'll decide whether to cancel my subscription or not.

Still a terrible move from them.

This is some shit, coming with 0 notice at the start of a work week. My exposure to Claude is only via Copilot which has worked very well for my purposes. I didn't have to learn a ton for it to just start working. I guess I'll look into other options now as I really want to continue using Opus, but don't have a need to 4x my spend on Copilot quite yet.

This is such a rug pull.

I'm a paying customer and I did not receive ANY communication about this. Was using Opus this afternoon and then it disappeared.

Microsoft really can't stop being Microsoft. I don't dispute the need to charge more for those models, but there is a basic decency to do things and as usual the Big Tech fuckery and complete lack of morals makes them do this in a way that generates total mistrust where it could be just annoyance.

I'll see how Sonnet handles the most difficult problems but I'm foresee a subscription cancelation soon.

It's quite telling, they've paused new signups because Microsoft doesn't have enough compute, and they moved Opus to only being accessible on a higher tier because Anthropic doesn't have enough compute either.

They're all operating at a loss, enshittification is coming for us all.

Props to them for being transparent about it.

how is it possible to have 126 points and still 26 karma, is it voter ring or bots? @dang
