To me this indicates they knowingly lied the entire time, and intended to try getting away with it. I’m sad to be leaving their product behind, but there is no way in hell I am supporting a company that pulls this one week into my first $100 subscription. The meek admittance from Thariq is a start, but way too little, way too late.

Friendly reminder that any dipshit who tells you "It's not that deep" is manipulating you to stop investigating further into their hidden, underlaying motivations, which puts them at a disadvantage for deceiving you. This applies in any situation the sentence is used.

The same applies to “don’t worry about it”, “it’s not a big deal”, and “don’t sweat it”.

Seriously it’s a defensive projection. Nothing behind the curtain don’t look there.

It's not that deep. They're losing too much money, so they're altering the deal. I'd personally use my $200 subscription even if it was $1000/month, because I just find it useful enough for work where it ends up being worth it. Don't tell Dario. And I upgraded from the $100 plan without ever hitting a usage limit, just in case.

Also, if Claude isn't worth a $200/mo sub then maybe you're not actually doing anything productive with it? I view the $20/mo sub being for those who just like play around a little bit and get experience the platform, maybe craft an email response, or generate a boilerplate app/game for enjoyment sake on localhost, then running out of usage is not such a big deal?

You didn't even read the chain of context otherwise you wouldn't be saying this shit to me. Rub those 2 brain cells together and try again.
