I've never actually run into the issues that people talk about online, like Claude suddenly getting dumb or running out of usage. So there's just not a lot of incentive for me to shop around. I've used Amp a bit, and it's quite nice, but a bit more expensive without the subsidized subscription.

Are you using Opus? Sonnet remains as useful as it was while Opus efficacy and token burn rate has soured over the last 4 months.

It has always been like this. We actually know that the model performance has been mostly steady[0], but you cannot beat the notion of "evil companies secretly serving us worse models." The meme value is too strong.

When do you use it the most? I’ve noticed that it most often starts to degrade during 10-5 US East coast time. Late at night, I have the least amount of issues, but without fail, if I’m trying to do anything complex during the day, Claude gets loopy.

Same here. Works every time. Never ran into usage limits either.
