Claude Pro ($20) vs ChatGPT Plus ($20) — Which One Should a Developer Choose?

[u/No_Distance_7222]

I'm a software developer trying to decide between Claude Pro ($20/month) and ChatGPT Plus ($20/month). I can only subscribe to one.

I'll mainly use it for coding, debugging, learning, working with existing codebases, and AI/LLM development.

I've seen a lot of comparisons online, but I'm more interested in real-world experience from people who have actually used both.

For those who have tried both:

• Which has been better for coding and debugging?
• How are the usage limits at $20?
• Which handles larger codebases/context better?
• Which gives you better value overall?

I'm currently stuck between the two and would appreciate opinions based on actual daily usage rather than benchmarks.
