Yeah, this sentence "I really am not a fan of having to feel like I'm using a limited resource whenever I use an LLM" felt like "I'm not a fan of reality" to me.

Lots of things still have usage-based pricing (last I checked no gas stations are offering "all you can fill up" specials), and those things work out fine.

These subscriptions only work because lighter users subsidise heavier users, but I guess the really heavy users are such big outliers that the maths isn't working out for Anthropic. I'm really not liking this neo-rentier capitalism we find ourselves in.
