Claude Pro user finds Opus 5.5 frustrating, less deep than Astra
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-09-28
A paying Claude Pro subscriber expresses disappointment with Opus 5.5: its personality carries a whiff of subtle disdain and friction, and it feels far less intellectually deep than Google's Astra — even V4.1 occasionally has better ideas. He also notes it makes frequent errors in demos, suggesting it's built for mainstream work and X demos.
