If someone had said, "I am generally not opposed to regulation, but this is a place where I don't support it.", you could have replied to it in a similar fashion, but reversed.
What's the conservative best practice for a solo founder (a one person company; assume the person spends ~20 hours per week on software development/maintenance and the rest of the time on other stuff)?
The main issue here is not UX, but rather that you did something which degraded quality without transparency. You should have documented this and also highlighted the change in an announcement. There should never be an undocumented change that reduces quality. There should never be something the user can do (or fail to do) that reduces quality without that being documented. To regain trust, Anthropic should make an announcement committing to documenting/announcing any future intentional quality-reducing changes.
In addition, the following is less important, but as other commenters have stated: walking away from a conversation and coming back to it more than an hour later is very common and it would be nice if there were a way for the user to opt to retain maximum quality (e.g. no dropped thinking) in this case. In the longer term, it would be nice if there were a way for the user to wait a few minutes for a stale session to resume, in exchange for not having a large amount of quota drained (ie have a 'slow mode' invoked upon session resumption that consumes less quota).
Note that inventory already in Amazon fulfillment centers as of March 31, 2026 is still commingled
"Also what happens after March 31st with the leftover commingled inventory that’s already there?
No action is required for stickerless inventory currently in-transit to or stored in our fulfillment centers. These products will continue to sell under their original SKUs.
Merely knowing that something often or even usually fails is not enough information to conclude that it's a bad bet -- in order to compute that, you also need to know how much money it makes when it succeeds.
For example, if you expect something to fail 80% of the time but to gain >400% the other 20% of the time, then the bet has positive expected value.
