I'll pass on this $50, but please hire real human and fix your crappy app, Claude!
This bug has been for years: in Claude (web or app), if you create a new chat at the middle of existing chat thinking or tool calling, the existing chat will be broken, either losing data, or become unusable.
It's unbelievable Anthropic worth hundreds of billions but can't fix this.
I get this regularly too, it's very annoying. I've started using one git worktree per Claude session specifically to avoid this issue.
My favorite bug is when I spend 5 minutes writing something and send it, then something breaks and refreshes, deleting the whole thing. Like, thanks, much appreciated, please waste more of my time.
Literally every time if I press the "stop" button while it's writing back for the first conversation turn because I notice I forgot something and want to correct it, my prompt is lost.
Anytime I run into a bug like this, part of me wants to go calculate how much of humanity's collective time has been wasted by one company not fixing a trivial bug. It's got to be a lot.
Yes!! The whole chat part of app is flaky as hell!
Sometimes I think it’s better to just use code tab to chat knowing that’s more reliable.
Sometimes you can recover it by refreshing the page where you lost the text.
