Claude Code to be removed from Anthropic's Pro plan?

#612ANthropic never wanted my money anyway... they don't allow work + personal accounts to have the same phone number. I had to close my personal account otherwise I could not complete onboarding at work. So I pay for Codex instead.

You need to onboard with your personal phone number at work? Why not with email?

#614Why would you even want a Claude subscription if not for Claude Code? Anthropic is obviously the best for programming, but probably nowhere else. Seems like a good way to onboard people to the Claude Code experience...everyone who's working seriously with it needs Opus, anyway. But, maybe that's the rub, if the Pro plan includes no Opus usage (which I think has always been the case), you might have a worse impression…
Opus 4.5 was part of the pro plan and 4.6 too

> Best forget about using Claude Opus models in Copilot. I noticed this morning that Opus isn't even one of the models in the `/model` command in Copilot. Highest I can get (on the paid, but least expensive) tier is Sonnet 4.6. I'm pretty sure Opus was allowed recently, but not now.
Yeha not thrilled about that. Looks like you gotta build your own agent harness and self host or use aws bedrock for "sovereignty"

I know of a very serious business that deployed Max to all of their developers. API pricing, from what I see, can become more expensive than just hiring another dev.
We're also not seeing much difference in real throughput at an agency. Everyone is getting decent results, output wise but it just doesn't seem to change the outcomes that much. There is also a mixed incentive at an agency, because a reduction in hours spent is a reduction in revenue. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out, but I suspect if cost continues to increase and output only improves incrementally…

Codex has been way better for my use case (reviewing existing Godot+GDScript code)

Indeed; especially since I paid for a sub with some expectations, and those are being changed out from under me.

#619Why is management at Anthropic trying so hard to ruin their reputation with developers? I missed the OpenClaw hype but it was something that kept me excited about my yearly subscription. It makes no sense to do one of the higher tier plans unless they are directly generating you money.
Where I work. Medium size, base in Europe company. It is paying over 1800 per dev in AI tools. Home users stand no chance.

I assume the Chinese corporations can operate in the red forever and be subsidized by the Chinese government.
That's true of any company in any country. If you can convince the government that your company is sufficiently important, you can get subsidized.
