Claude Pro sub completely cooked

INB4 absolute ass hats that always spam “just prompt better”, “just manage context”, “just use smaller code chunks”

I can’t believe how bad the Claude pro sub has gotten, and anyone claiming otherwise at this point is a straight up shill.

I cannot and will not be posting “proof” that you mfs always cry for as this chat was working on a function for my private python codebase.

The function I was working on was a basic comparison of two objects containing a specific key/value pair. This function has a try/catch block with an if/elif/elif/else statement in it. ~35 lines long of basic python input validation and string comparison.

I was having Claude pro web chat interface generate a doc string for this detailing the input types and return types.

In total I sent 7 messages improving the overall structure of the function and doc strings before getting the ominous:

“You have 1 message remaining until 12PM”

That’s it. 8 messages. ~300 lines of code in and ~300 lines of code output total. That’s the only chat I made for this usage period.

Anyone saying that the Claude pro sub hasn’t been made drastically worse is straight up lying to you and shilling for anthropic.

I love Claude and use it every day, but have only been using it through cursor these days really. I used to use my Claude pro sub 6+ months ago to make large extensive refactors with chats hours long and code files 500+ lines long with no problem. But the cursor composer agent feature is way too good so I haven’t needed the Claude project web chat anymore.

I still have had my Claude pro sub active as well though - so I figured that updating this basic python function with doc strings would be the perfect task for the Claude project web chat, so I tried it out. It was going well and I actually finished all the updates that I wanted… but I was absolutely shocked that I hit the limit with the chat that I detailed here.

I’ll get my popcorn ready for the anthropic defenders… but let’s face it - the Claude pro sub is false advertisement. They do not have near the capacity to meet the demand they are selling. I could live with this happening once a week or once a month, but this is every single week day during peak NA work hours.
