Anthropic thinking they're Reddit ~2023 feels pretty arrogant.

And if they've made a business decision to do this, rolling it out without announcement is even worse.

Did they think no one would notice?

Anthropic has like 4x Reddit’s revenue and 8x the valuation. I don’t understand the arrogance.

Plus I’m the one who compared them to Reddit. They certainly didn’t issue a statement that said “well it worked for Reddit”.

    Reddit had a first move and scale advantage by then that Anthropic could only dream of.

    Plus its product utility scaled with user count.

    To the upthread/sibling conversations about substitutability of LLMs (and therefore pricing power).

Why would they need to make an announcement? Their subscription plan is for their products only. Other companies were hacking it to use it. It's not surprising they would shut it down.
