Same here. Regularly reverting back to Opus 4.8 after 5.0 being terrible.

Anthropic does this all the time (ruins their models for users) while they screw around with system prompts. Oh but it's for your own good of course! They know what's best for us all, if we would just give them a monopoly.

I can't wait until OpenAI/Grok/Chinese models surpass them enough that their main character syndrome and smug doomerism no longer draws much media attention.
