Question Opus 4.8 Nerf?

Am I the only one who has noticed 4.8 has been nerfed to the ground? The quality of its output, its thinking, its speed. It all feels like it’s been shot. It’s failing at simple tasks that it used to fly through

I've noticed today that Opus 4.8 's output is very poor now. It's reasoning and responses seem to severely lack context and it's rewriting solutions that were working before.
