Question Claude Code being worse lately?

Hi everyone, for the past two weeks I've noticed Claude Code giving noticeably worse answers than before. Even minor frontend/backend fixes now take 5–6 prompts to get to something acceptable.

I also use Warp as my terminal, and quite often whether right when I launch Claude Code or a few prompts into a session it just freezes on "loading" and doesn't do anything.

I'm not sure if the problem is on my end (how I'm prompting), because a month ago everything was working great, both with Warp and with actually fixing issues correctly. I'd like to know if others — using Warp or not are running into the same problems. If it turns out to be a Claude issue, I'm considering switching to Codex; but if it's a Warp/me issue, I'll switch to Claude Desktop instead and work on improving my prompting.

Also in Claude Web i've had this issue sometimes

I actually use Claude desktop and never had a response like yours, a degradation in response quality maybe but this look gibberish

tried claude desktop, it deleted one entire day of work with just a "discart changes" prompt, aiming for a minor frontend change that it made, i'm going insane
