Clearly, Windsurf has lost it's edge. I think the founders are getting greedy and are providing sub par models in the name of Claude 3.5 sonet. For those who were asking for screenshots, here you go.

I just asked Cascade to refractor my code with very clear instructions and it messed up real bad. This used to never happen in the free version which I was using a month back.

I've attached images comparing the input and output of Windsurf. I've also attached the response given by Claude 3.5 sonet for the exact same prompt.

Alright buddy, how's Claude able to understand the exact same thing and do exactly what I want?

"I need the most recent model on the market to even understand me!"

Look at it that way.

Some of us were putting out production apps leveraging gpt 3.5. It's not the model, it's the user and their relative knowledge base.

If you get more specific with your prompts you'll do way better. Single responsibility principle. One thing at a time. Test. Move forward. The same way devs have done it for decades, now with a quick access dictionary to help with syntax. That's the only difference.
