It took you a month to revert after multiple complaints. You still blamed users for using the product exactly as you advertised it. And all of your official channels were completely quite for two months, whether it was about new draconian peak hour limits, or about the new defaults, or about exponentially increasing token costs.
People literally started seeing issues immediately as you changed the defaults: https://x.com/levelsio/status/2029307862493618290 And despite a huge amount of reports you still kept it for a whole month.
And then you shipped a completely untested feature with prompt cache misses and literally gaslit users and blamed users for using the product as advertised.
Now untold umber of people have been hit by these changes, so as an apology you reset usage limits three hours before they would reset anyway.
Good job.
Edit. By the way, a very telling sentence from the report:
--- start quote ---
We’ll ensure that a larger share of internal staff use the exact public build of Claude Code (as opposed to the version we use to test new features); and we'll make improvements to our Code Review tool that we use internally
--- end quote ---
Translation: no one is using or even testing the product we ship, and we blindly trust Claude Code to review and find bugs for us. Last one isn't even a translation: https://x.com/bcherny/status/2017742750473720121
