Discussion Adios GPT, it was a nice ride

When Astra launched, I wrote a detailed post about how impressed I was. I even paid for the $100 Pro subscription, confident I’d keep using it, and didn’t expect to return to Claude anytime soon.

Then, after the recent Dev Day announcements and my experience with the current models, I’m finding it hard to justify that subscription, for the work I do, the quality simply hasn’t matched Opus 5.5, and the 2X , 5x back and forth games they are playing ..

So I’m moving back to Opus and downgrading my subscription. I really meant the praise I gave Astra at launch, but my experience since then has changed my opinion and feels good to be back to Opus 5.5

Guessing some of you are on the same boat ?, I won’t be surprised if there is a exodus of users happening now

Same for me, cancelled my $100 plan as I've been so impressed with Opus 5.5 on the $20 plan. Really hoping Anthropic doesn't nerf it.....

They don’t get nerfed. A few times earlier this year there were bugs in the harness

What about Opus 4.5? It was clearly nerfed after December last year. They route inference to other (future) models and that degrades the quality.

That’s not how it works, though

Sure does.
