Ask HN: Has Claude Code been (mostly) usable for you?

1•mark_l_watson•1h ago

I have just had my 3rd session in less than a week when I had to eventually quit Claude Code and do a task using another model/subscription.

Am I just unlucky?

EDIT: it is working again. Today I was asking for research and I kept getting warnings that the model was unavailable (Opus 4.8)

I've used Claude Code for many hours every day since the original Sonnet so I'd have to say.. yes?

Are you using the $20/month subscription? I don't use it much, perhaps two 20-minute sessions a day so I don't get close to using my quota.

When it works, it is a great system, but now three times in a week it wasted some of my time.
