They're not losing anything. They have much more demand than they could ever fulfill to care anymore about promotional or subsidized user groups.

Until magically all their demand vaporizes.

I suspect a lot of people are like me. They got into this at the $20/month level individually to check things out. I'm not stressing things out, so I haven't moved up, but the moment I bump into a limit, I'll pull the trigger by default. Until then, I'm the sleeping dog, and you should let me lie.

Well, Anthropic decided to kick me. Now, I'm investing the time to figure out how to use the "open" and "Chinese" models assuming that Anthropic is about to screw me. Once I switch, Anthropic is going to have to demonstrate significant improvements over what I'm now using to get me to even consider them again.

  • I don't think they need the $20/month users when there are some who use over $1000 in tokens per day.
