This thread is pretty quiet for what strikes me as a substantial set of changes with, presumably, more substantial changes still to come for anyone not grandfathered into a Pro plan.

I get the impression that the intersection of HN posters and Copilot users is quite small in practice; that Claude Code and Codex suck up all the oxygen in this room. But it seems plausible we’ll see similar “true costs greatly exceed our current subscription pricing” from Anthropic and OpenAI someday soon…

Indeed!

I just found out via other news sources, and was surprised I hadn't seen it on HN already.

The ux of copilot driving Claude beats Claude Code handily.

I never understood the low visibility.

Expensive ram is annoying. I don't look forward to expensive ai.

The change applies to existing subscriptions, some paid a year in advance.
