Commentator: OpenAI and Anthropic have completely swapped user goodwill
kimmonismus · x · 2026-10-09
AI commentator kimmonismus argues OpenAI and Anthropic have swapped reputations: months ago Anthropic faced a wave of subscription cancellations over the verbose Opus 5 and restrictive usage limits while OpenAI won users with generous GPT-5.6 Sol limits. Now Anthropic ships efficient models like Opus 5.5 with ample weekly limits and, in his view, genuinely listened to community feedback — while all the old criticisms (inefficiency, poor rates, poor communication) have turned against OpenAI.
