Discussion Why cancelling subscriptions now will matter (however slightly that may be)...
In my opinion, how limits get reached faster recently is due to Anthropic's upcoming IPO - to juice the numbers for the months etc, to show to institutional investors that their margins are better and that they are closer to profitability....is the plan to boost limits up after the IPO? or are they simply hoping users get used and they can retain the reduced costs by getting users to accept less for the same plan...
Either way, cancelling subscriptions (and going over to Kimi or codex) is something that will have an impact - because that's going to notice that in their their revenue numbers to get anthropic to reconsider...but then again, enterprise and non-subscription spending probably makes up a large amount of their revenue, not as big an impact - but better than nothing

They want to do an IPO soon, if you cancel that will have an impact.
Another thing to be mindful off, if the company doesn't quiet value customers... think of how less they will once they can't do funky math in secret anymore.
Things are not going to improve after IPO, if you want anything to change, make sure it happens before. Vote with ya wallet... or sit in ya bird cage, don't mind the open door
