At my company, devs were the ones pushing for the Claude subscription. Left to management, we would have only had GitHub Copilot – we already have an existing relationship with them and the tool is good enough.

If Anthropic is intent on losing the goodwill of the devs, they might not be happy with the consequences. Their product is quite commoditized at this point – the latest GPT, Gemini or GLM is just as good for most enterprise tasks.

Exactly the same for me, and I'm now ... "worried" isn't quite right, but you know what I mean, that they will back out. But to what? We had copilot before which was cheaper, and worked reasonably well with the A\ models, but I'm not even sure those will be there (Opus is no longer on my cheapest paid Copilot sub at home), and I've no doubt OpenAI will jack up their prices soon enough and/or do the "exclusivity" thing so they can only be accessed by their own clients.

They tick all the boxes I care about – desktop & mobile app, cli – but for the same price I might as well just go for the leading providers.

We are in a thread about hamburger tops...

Git wins by not needing to be replaced badly enough. Latley you can just ask an agent to "amend the last commit" so even that is being abstracted away.

I do hope the rare earth metal in my calculator is also ethically sourced.

In high school I kept a USB drive full of portable apps. This was one of them. I can still recommend it.

They can train on the outputs i.e. distillation attacks.

How is that theft?

I’m also fine with the change. Claude is my go-to for research as the standalone app and shortcut are very convenient.

The Kagi team should focus on the core product; that’s what I’m paying for. I stopped being a ProtonMail customer once they began chasing side projects instead of polishing their actual offering. I hope Kagi doesn't go down that same route.

I have my own hobby RSS server built around the Google Reader API. Two of my plugins are pretty similar to what you described: one checks a page’s current state against the last saved version and publishes an entry if anything changed, the other is basically a CSS selector-based feed builder. Always good to see RSS content here, thanks for posting!

On your questions: some people prefer RSS, others email, and services exist to convert between the two in both directions. My own rule of thumb is email for things that need actual attention and RSS for everything that can wait. If you’re thinking about turning this into a service, supporting both would make sense since people are pretty split on this.
