    Is it bad form to make feature requests and give feedback on a downtime post? I don't care. I just want this to reach Anthropic's eyes. Please let us: * Sign in with Apple on the website * Buy subscriptions from iOS In App Purchases * Remove our payment info from the website * Give paying subscribers an easy way to get actual support As a frequent traveller I'm not sure if some of those features are gated by region, because some people said they can do some of those things.

This makes me wonder: what do developers, who completely rely on LLMs to write their code, do when the service is down? I realize this is already a problem for other jobs, which require working with SAAS, but it seems odd to me that now some developers will fall into this "helpless" category as well.

  If they're smart, they just switch to ppq.ai or an openrouter provider where they can purchase prepaid tokens from various providers with many alternative models available.

  Non-serious answer: I'll go for a walk. Serious answer: I can write code manually, but it feels like a waste of time. I'll just go for a walk to synthesize my ideas if a service was down, and I don't think not writing actual code for a day is a huge problem. So focus on health and maybe even talk to humans.

It's usually down about at least once a day for me anyway. Previously it used to be down during beginning and end of US work times. Now that they've geographically spread out their servers, it's down at random times instead. TBH I'm not so irritated by this. It keeps me grounded, and saves me from being unconsciously outsourcing all the hard work of thought process to AI.
- danielbln 11mo ago
  I spend 10h/day in Claude Code and I don't remember the last time it was unavailable to me, maybe a couple of months ago? I suspect this is highly dependant on location and timezone, but at least from within Central Europe it has been smooth sailing (apart from this morning...)
  - dfsegoat 11mo ago
    Very similar usage duration / window for me (US Pacific) - no availability issues.
  - nojs 11mo ago
    Same. It used to go down all the time but the past couple of months it’s been very stable.
  - SOLAR_FIELDS 11mo ago
    Stability has seen a marked improvement since summer. I used to regularly get 429 error codes multiple times per session. Lately it’s been quite awhile since I’ve had it error out or silently exit the chat with no response. I don’t usually code at the peak times though, when it does go down its usually morning time in USA when all of the Europeans are still using it too.
  - anonzzzies 11mo ago
    Same, it has been stable mostly. Becsusr of the instability before, we have our own scripts protecting it so it continues after failure, for several different failures.

Has anyone else pretty much stopped using AI at this point? The only thing I use it for to help generate README's or Javadocs, and then heavily edit them. I had it in my workflow and it burned me so many times I just went back to google and stackoverflow.
- Hamuko 11mo ago
  Never really started. Really the only properly good AI thing that I’ve used is AI autocompletions, which are generally higher quality than the traditional ones that I’ve used. Not that it’s perfect and at least the one in Xcode has hallucinated on me.
- dataengineer56 11mo ago
  If I have a question for SO these days then I ask Claude instead and tell it to use SO where possible. It's preferable to actually asking it on SO which often results in the question being edited, downvoted and closed by someone with an anime child profile picture.
  - a5c11 11mo ago
    What was the question like? "How to print a decimal in C"? Valuable questions aren't downvoted. If you ask about something that could be found on the first Google page, then no surprise you are being downvoted.

    - dataengineer56 11mo ago
      I asked a novel question, well-written and clear, and a "subject matter expert" decided it was too similar to another question (it wasn't), so they defaced it, downvoted it and closed it. Stack Overflow is dying, it's extremely difficult to get new questions through. Even if they survive moderation then they're unlikely to get answers.

      Isn’t it funny how people think? Say anything about Palestine not deserving being flattened and you are now anti-Semitic and a Nazi. Mention how NATO is not as innocent and harmless a a fly and perhaps being on the other side of their friendly border is definitely reason for concern and you are now a Putin puppet. You know, I lived in a dictatorship briefly. That’s exactly how thinking goes when they reason about opposition and free thought.

CapsAdmin 11mo ago
I didn't even know they had a status page. Claude (with pro subscription) is often so unreliable with regards to connectivity and performance that I'm looking for something more predictable. It randomly fails halfway through a response, sometimes very slow to start, hangs for long periods during a response, and so on. The Claude chat interface can also slow down with long sessions. I sometimes use Claude code which is better, but I'm not a huge fan of terminal interfaces. I'm aware of third party frontends, but I believe those require api access which I don't like for personal use.
- siva7 11mo ago
  Try Gemini to see how bad it can really get. Most of the time 2.5 pro requests fail for unknown reasons over the App. Claude and Chatgpt are way more reliable.
  - SXX 11mo ago
    It almost never fails via AI Studio though. Also I doubt fails you see really have anything to do with LLM itself, capacity or backend. It's just Google own UIs and apps are almost comically bad.
    - siva7 11mo ago
      I use Gemini over web app and mobile app. Both are very unreliable. Anthropic and openai don't have more resources than google but still get it right most of the time - the quality of product development is not even in a similar league
      - fakedang 11mo ago
        Gemini is much much better using AI studio though. And no, Claude sucks ass. It's like Anthropic does not want to make money. For a company that's targeting enterprise customers, they are totally unprepared. Like forget customer support, they can't even sell properly. They brag about insane capabilities on the Max plan but good luck trying to buy that on a team plan with company billing. Even if OpenAI doesn't have the best model, at least they know what to do to make money.

Still seeing issues on the OAuth flow despite a "a fix [having] been implemented". Looks like whatever happened probably trashed the session database since it's forcing Claude Code to re-auth.

If LLM use were as valuable as the adherents claim it is, this news would be on par with AWS US East 1 being down. LLMs neither have the mechanical reliability we expect from computers (does it the same way every time) nor the flexible reliability we expect from biological intelligences (solves or works around the unexpected sub-problems as they arise).
- johnebgd 11mo ago
  If all of Amazon went down in 1998 or 1999 it wouldn’t have been news on par with AWS in 2025.
- andybak 11mo ago
  What a weird top comment. It opens with some subtle name calling ("adherents"?), an unwarranted conclusion and then a statement about what LLMs lack (which is no surprise) that we're meant to draw a conclusion from? I find the debate about LLMs rather exhausting. I find them useful and almost every day someone on social media tells me I'm mistaken, lying or merely deluded .

steveharman 11mo ago
I wonder if it's coincidence: today Anthropic mailed out all previous customers of Claude offering a free monthly of 5x Claude Code if they sign up again. Plenty on Reddit saying they did. And I did. Could the outage be a the result of an "unexpected" surge in account activations / use? Not much of a "welcome back" ;-)
sho 11mo ago
5 hours in and I'm pretty disappointed in Anthropic's response to this. Looking at their status page you'd think everything was OK, the downtime was only 37 minutes, a fix is in place and they're "monitoring" - that's total BS. I can't even log in. I can forgive downtime, we've all been there, but I really don't like when companies try to smooth it over with little self-serving minimizations of the disruption.. while it's still in progress! I use Claude Code for programming work, but I choose OpenAI anywhere customer-facing and this cute little outage is making me feel better about that with every passing minute. NOT cool.
- Aeolun 11mo ago
  Yeah, their API's are returning me a grand total of 1 token per second now or so. It's...
bachittle 11mo ago
Pro tip: if you pay for Claude, also subscribe to status updates here: https://status.claude.com https://status.claude.com . you may want to add a rule to filter these to a tag or folder as they can be quite spammy, but it has helped me lots. It tells you which specific models are down and what platforms are down, such as claude web, app, API, etc.
- esperent 11mo ago
  I signed up for a Claude Teams account last week. File uploads were not working anywhere - web, desktop, Android app. As soon as I switched over to a personal account they worked again. Switch back to Team account, broken again with just a cryptic 404 error popping up. They were broken for a week, I found several people talking about it on Reddit. But no word from Anthropic, no status page info. I opened a support request, there was no response until 3 or 4 days later when someone messaged to say that it was fixed, and a status page related to it magically appeared.

Lately it’s been quite awhile since I’ve had it error out or silently exit the chat with no response. I don’t usually code at the peak times though, when it does go down its usually morning time in USA when all of the Europeans are still using it too.

  Same, it has been stable mostly. Becsusr of the instability before, we have our own scripts protecting it so it continues after failure, for several different failures.

Has anyone else pretty much stopped using AI at this point? The only thing I use it for to help generate README's or Javadocs, and then heavily edit them. I had it in my workflow and it burned me so many times I just went back to google and stackoverflow.

Hamuko 11mo ago
Never really started. Really the only properly good AI thing that I’ve used is AI autocompletions, which are generally higher quality than the traditional ones that I’ve used. Not that it’s perfect and at least the one in Xcode has hallucinated on me.

If I have a question for SO these days then I ask Claude instead and tell it to use SO where possible. It's preferable to actually asking it on SO which often results in the question being edited, downvoted and closed by someone with an anime child profile picture.
- a5c11 11mo ago
  What was the question like? "How to print a decimal in C"? Valuable questions aren't downvoted. If you ask about something that could be found on the first Google page, then no surprise you are being downvoted.

    You sound like an SO moderator
  - dataengineer56 11mo ago
    I asked a novel question, well-written and clear, and a "subject matter expert" decided it was too similar to another question (it wasn't), so they defaced it, downvoted it and closed it. Stack Overflow is dying, it's extremely difficult to get new questions through. Even if they survive moderation then they're unlikely to get answers.

Grok seems to have much better uptime, I have Pro sub on both Claude and Grok so just switch between them.

  Yes because anyone offering a positive opinion on Grok or one of Elon's companies must have been bought.

    Based on your comment history you certainly qualify as a Musk and Musk venture super fan. That's not a crime, of course, but it's context.

    Isn’t it funny how people think? Say anything about Palestine not deserving being flattened and you are now anti-Semitic and a Nazi. Mention how NATO is not as innocent and harmless a a fly and perhaps being on the other side of their friendly border is definitely reason for concern and you are now a Putin puppet. You know, I lived in a dictatorship briefly. That’s exactly how thinking goes when they reason about opposition and free thought.

  I use it because it offers a very generous amount of free queries, subsidized by VC money.

Gemini have 100% uptime and zero limits of any kind in their free models :) Highly recommended

Can anyone cheer up Claude? Please, we're all depending on you! /s

I didn't even know they had a status page. Claude (with pro subscription) is often so unreliable with regards to connectivity and performance that I'm looking for something more predictable. It randomly fails halfway through a response, sometimes very slow to start, hangs for long periods during a response, and so on. The Claude chat interface can also slow down with long sessions. I sometimes use Claude code which is better, but I'm not a huge fan of terminal interfaces. I'm aware of third party frontends, but I believe those require api access which I don't like for personal use.

siva7 11mo ago
Try Gemini to see how bad it can really get. Most of the time 2.5 pro requests fail for unknown reasons over the App. Claude and Chatgpt are way more reliable.
- SXX 11mo ago
  It almost never fails via AI Studio though. Also I doubt fails you see really have anything to do with LLM itself, capacity or backend. It's just Google own UIs and apps are almost comically bad.
  - siva7 11mo ago
    I use Gemini over web app and mobile app. Both are very unreliable. Anthropic and openai don't have more resources than google but still get it right most of the time - the quality of product development is not even in a similar league
    - fakedang 11mo ago
      Gemini is much much better using AI studio though. And no, Claude sucks ass. It's like Anthropic does not want to make money. For a company that's targeting enterprise customers, they are totally unprepared. Like forget customer support, they can't even sell properly. They brag about insane capabilities on the Max plan but good luck trying to buy that on a team plan with company billing. Even if OpenAI doesn't have the best model, at least they know what to do to make money.

Was wondering why we haven't had any fires today - it's nice having some calm on a Friday. Could we make this a weekly thing?

Dear terminal based programmers, who switched to Grok Console [0] from Claude Code [1] and why should I, too? [0] https://console.grok.com/ https://console.grok.com/ [1] https://www.claude.com/product/claude-code https://www.claude.com/product/claude-code

All the major providers seem to have blips on latency and other issues at least once a day, which would be a “service degradation” by the standards of normal apps.

OAuth handshake still gives internal server errors when you try to /login from Claude Code

jimkleiber 11mo ago

Login on claude.ai seems to be back online, but login through Claude Code via OAuth is still down for me. So I'm twiddling my thumbs.

gafferongames 11mo ago

Oh no. How will all the kids write code today?

jimkleiber 11mo ago
I was pretty against coding tools like this until I'm trying to customize an open-source library, written in a language that I don't know, mostly to show an MVP. For that purpose? It lets me do things I never would have even tried.
kerabatsos 11mo ago
They will, but much much much slower.

Is your brain still up? I don't get this voluntary reliance on so-called AI.

andybak 11mo ago
"Use" != "reliance" (There's actually a nuanced conversation to be had on this - but from your tone, I'm not sure that's what you intended)

AgentK20 11mo ago

Still seeing issues on the OAuth flow despite a "a fix [having] been implemented". Looks like whatever happened probably trashed the session database since it's forcing Claude Code to re-auth.

remnv 11mo ago

Still got issues with the reauth, i’ll try glm for now

If LLM use were as valuable as the adherents claim it is, this news would be on par with AWS US East 1 being down. LLMs neither have the mechanical reliability we expect from computers (does it the same way every time) nor the flexible reliability we expect from biological intelligences (solves or works around the unexpected sub-problems as they arise).

johnebgd 11mo ago
If all of Amazon went down in 1998 or 1999 it wouldn’t have been news on par with AWS in 2025.
andybak 11mo ago
What a weird top comment. It opens with some subtle name calling ("adherents"?), an unwarranted conclusion and then a statement about what LLMs lack (which is no surprise) that we're meant to draw a conclusion from? I find the debate about LLMs rather exhausting. I find them useful and almost every day someone on social media tells me I'm mistaken, lying or merely deluded .

It also happened during the night/non-working hours for people in NA so that has something to do with it.

steveharman 11mo ago

I wonder if it's coincidence: today Anthropic mailed out all previous customers of Claude offering a free monthly of 5x Claude Code if they sign up again. Plenty on Reddit saying they did. And I did. Could the outage be a the result of an "unexpected" surge in account activations / use? Not much of a "welcome back" ;-)

sho 11mo ago

5 hours in and I'm pretty disappointed in Anthropic's response to this. Looking at their status page you'd think everything was OK, the downtime was only 37 minutes, a fix is in place and they're "monitoring" - that's total BS. I can't even log in. I can forgive downtime, we've all been there, but I really don't like when companies try to smooth it over with little self-serving minimizations of the disruption.. while it's still in progress! I use Claude Code for programming work, but I choose OpenAI anywhere customer-facing and this cute little outage is making me feel better about that with every passing minute. NOT cool.

Aeolun 11mo ago
Yeah, their API's are returning me a grand total of 1 token per second now or so. It's...

bachittle 11mo ago

Pro tip: if you pay for Claude, also subscribe to status updates here: https://status.claude.com https://status.claude.com . you may want to add a rule to filter these to a tag or folder as they can be quite spammy, but it has helped me lots. It tells you which specific models are down and what platforms are down, such as claude web, app, API, etc.

esperent 11mo ago
I signed up for a Claude Teams account last week. File uploads were not working anywhere - web, desktop, Android app. As soon as I switched over to a personal account they worked again. Switch back to Team account, broken again with just a cryptic 404 error popping up. They were broken for a week, I found several people talking about it on Reddit. But no word from Anthropic, no status page info. I opened a support request, there was no response until 3 or 4 days later when someone messaged to say that it was fixed, and a status page related to it magically appeared.
