Claude keeps assuming I'm on a laptop: A user's amusing grievance
cosmictap · reddit · 2026-08-21
A user complains that Claude consistently assumes they are using a laptop, despite repeated clarifications that they use a desktop 95% of the time. The user speculates this is due to the vast majority of users being on laptops, creating a prior for the model, or security restrictions in the MacOS app preventing hardware data access.
