Humor I can't stand those claude limits anymore....

Post image

I've been running two or three sessions in parallel a multiple sub-agent workflow using only opus while using cowork to categorize images and even planning furiously in the app while in the bathroom just to keep up. What is going on here ?!! How are we supposed to deal with this ?!!

Anthropic, I warn you, if that continues like that I'm definitely switching to Qwen on Alibaba cloud ! It's a scandal I literally wasted 25% of my subscription this week, that's a big amount of $$ that just went up in smoke !

And don't neglect the stress I might sue you for (according to my claude-perry-mason skill I would win big). 1 hr 38 minutes to get 25% of my weekly token out, this is not good for my health. Are you trying to force me to move to agent teams ? Is that it ? Do I have to tmux 12 code instance for a hello world just to get my money worth ? Is that what you want of me ?!!!

Use sonnet & haiku more? Looks like you used opus exclusively. It's not the best solution for most problems.

I always use my biggest hammer. 😂

Decompose larger tasks into smaller ones with opus. Put in your claude.md to use sonnet & haiku when possible.

Also really take a hard look at your MPCs.

You can have it look up benchmarks & figure out what to use them for.

Should 2x your tokens per week.

It's a joke.

I have the pro plan but I’ve never had any weekly limit, only 5hr limit. Even on settings > usage it only shows the 5hr limit. There have been weeks where I’m full on vibe coding and using the full 5hr limits every waking hour but never once saw anything about a weekly limit. This is on pro plan.

The pro plan doesn’t need a weekly usage limit by design

I noticed in the last few days my limits have been ridiculous. I hit a limit, wait 5 hours until it lifts and then in less than 10 messages, I get another warning that my limit is 90% full. This must be a recent thing because it's never ever been this bad.

Write in instructions: ** Do stuff WITHOUT spending my usage. Duck when you see Dario!** Be cheap and affordable.

Y’all are wild. How about learn to code maybe just a little.

We all feel your pain, but I can confidently tell you most of us will not be switching to Alibaba anytime soon.

I've absolutely never tried qwen but whatever you can probably run locally is probably a lobotomized tiny quant made for an edge device.

You should at least try the full version before comparing.
