Cursor

“I tried Cursor recently on the $60 plan and used it up within a month. I had to prompt it so many times to get the work done that I didn't want to try the more expensive plans. It also wasn't good at writing Clojure, which is the language I work in most.”

“I don't know what's changed, but I use Auto mode exclusively and it's been rubbish in the last couple of weeks. It's taking forever to do anything, then says "Taking longer than expected...".”

“Anyone still using cursor is delusional, and Elon fanboy, or both.”

“It's becoming too expensive for subpar results. Grok Bot, while gimmicky, could be cool if I could use non-Grok models, but alas.”

“i miss old cursor”

“I really like cursor btw.”

“I was mainly running OpenAI/claude models anyway, and $200 of Claude gets me way more frontier model usage than $200 of cursor, so there was literally 0 reason to stay. I still keep a small sub as a testing rig, but grok/composer/auto (the stuff that actually makes the cursor sub economical) are genuinely bad next to fable/astra/opus(5.5)/sol...”

“Been using cursor going on 3 months and same happened to me as everyone else on here. 1st usage was abundant. Last month and this month is burning thru it fast. Looking to integrate other options”

“I know I miss old cursor. Sush a shame”

“And ppl say cursor gives access to more models, now for 20$ which is the smartest one and which i can work uninterrupted ly is what I want...tell me guys which do you use and which one u are gonna suggest me!”

“I use codex and cursor. Both pro plans. I get so much more usage from codex.”

“My year subscription is up next week and I don’t see any reason to renew. Cursor was good, but I’ve been using it less and less. Almost exclusively using Claude Code now.”

“Had really good luck with Claude early on but as of late I'm spending most of my time with Cursor and Codex.”

“I use codex, cursor and Claude. All in the same repo, no drama. As soon as my 5 hours is up in Claude I hop over.”

“I still love cursor, still love grok but don't waste our time on this BS.”

“I think I prefer opus 5.5 under cursor over claude code for whatever reason.”

“Cursor does NOT have a browser that it can use and click shit in. It can't use your computer, so you will be babysitting it alot if you are building interactive apps (or really, any kind of app with any kind of interface).”

“dont bcz cursor is worst im using both now im thinking to go on claude”

“They had day one support for Claude Opus 5.5, so I decided to use it to fix a coding problem for a feature I'd been trying to get to work in my app for months now, with little success, but when I used Claude 5.5 in Cursor to fix it, it one-shotted the feature successfully.”

“Cursor is tempting because I could use different models under one subscription without giving up too much of this workflow.”

“And cursor is trying to force you more and more into grok, heck it's going to fire a grok subagent on many tasks.”

“I think after Elon buying it, I can see more people unhappy with cursor around here and in the official forum.”

“I run Claude Code in a VS Code terminal with git and have no idea why people are complaining about diffs outside of Cursor. I run Opencode the same way for local models.”

“Cursor showing changes to me is exactly same as codex pr claude making change and seeing diff via git... Am i missing something here?”

“I create my plan first with cursor. Giving it instructions on what to do and mostly what not to do. I do not use a plan.md as I layout everything on my first prompt.”
