After 5.5, I basically don't notice a jump in model performance, other than my usage ending sooner.

Astra is noticeably smarter than any OpenAI model before it. Sol 6.1 is very noticeably smarter than sol 6 even after half a day of using it (sol 6 was actually terra 6 and opus 5.5 has taken them by a total complete surprise)

I do.

The results are less buggy, animations are much better.

It can work autonomously for hours and the result is decent most of the time.

That wasn't usually the case with 5.5, which needed more feedback and iterations to get things right.

Kinda same but I miss my 5.3 Codex. Thing lasted forever on my $20 subscription and with detailed prompts was able to pretty much implement everything I requested it to do with a acceptable quality.

Felt the same until I started using Luna. I feel like I get similar performance, but faster, and my usage lasts so much longer.

Meanwhile Fable 5 and Opus 5.5 are in a different league.

Same. 5.5 got work done then 5.6 was also fine then 6 was maybe not quite as good. Now with 6.1 they are cutting usage and raising prices and introducing ultra fast mode, but things were good enough 5 months ago.
