alt Hacker NewsWhy is management at Anthropic trying so hard to ruin their reputation with developers? I missed the OpenClaw hype but it was something that kept me excited about my yearly subscription.
It makes no sense to do one of the higher tier plans unless they are directly generating you money.

they don't care about their reputation with devs, they care about their reputation with people that can write them big fat checks

Where I work. Medium size, base in Europe company. It is paying over 1800 per dev in AI tools. Home users stand no chance.

Also note that they are letting OpenClaw be used again with `claude -p`, so a partial reversal

They care about developers from companies that are on their team/enterprise plans or using bedrock.
Individual users barely matter. That's probably also the same group that decides to switch to Codex/Kimi/[whatever the hottest agent on any given day] on a whim, which Anthropic doesn't necessarily want to do business with.
