This is literally the opposite of my experience, for whatever it's worth.

I went so far as to cancel my $200 Claude Max account (after having it since launch) in favor of the equivalent OpenAI subscription, primarily because I feel like it goes so much further. Also Astra is pretty great.

But to each their own! I'm sure this experience is very dependent on the types of work you're doing. I'm doing basic web app development as as simple personal assistant automation stuff.
