Chrisamelio · reddit ·
“I am no longer paying for Cursor's subscription. I moved to Deepseek flash (which also integrates nicely with Cursor IDE), and so far it's much better. Good enough for my work fullstack dev) and much faster than auto”

“A "keep it simple" line in the prompt never stuck for me. What did was a hard rule plus a tiny edit list. In .cursor/rules I have: do not add a new class, interface, folder, or layer unless I explicitly asked.”

timhuyn · hn ·
“But I actually moved from cursor to VS due to cloud agents randomly waking back up in completed projects and restarting them which not only depleted my monthly usage credits but also created a big bill of overages.”

“Cursor keeps eating my changes on big files lately, super annoying.”

“I'm also a cursor user and recently I thought about testing codex, my god how it over engineer everything and take too long when sending just one prompt especially when using sol in medium or high also teg limits are a joke if you use sol even on medium however in cursor grok 4.6 felt pretty much unlimited I could use it teb entire month every day but is still find it lagging behind opus 5 for example when it gets stuck I call opus 5 on cursor and it will fix the problem almost instantly”

“This particular i hold against cursor they literally made any api adding to cursor horrible experience for me they even disabled thinking and holding my apis back to look bad”
casanova0730 · reddit ·
“I use cursor to create the software architecture and most of the time there is an extra layer of abstractions which make the codebase complicated than it needs to be.”

“the new cursor grok is much better than old grok but more expensive”
SpiritualSyrup3300 · reddit ·
“It genuinely feels like the model intelligence has gone backwards by about 1–1.5 years. It’s changing things it shouldn’t touch, misunderstanding straightforward instructions, getting lost in simple tasks and generally feels way, way less reliable than it did before. To the point i dont want it touching my code anymore.”

“I use Codex for long refactors where I can walk away, and Cursor when I'm jumping between files and want to watch each edit land.”
MostlyHelpfulLinks · reddit ·
“I'm convinced Cursor just shipped the biggest UX shift in AI coding this year. Starting a fresh chat every time you needed something done was so dumb.”
PrajwalTomar_ · x ·
“Same models are in cursor for now. Codex is just an extension in VSCode/Cursor”
MannyRibera32 · reddit ·
“Cursor's new Projects feature lets a coordinating agent plan and delegate long-running coding tasks to sub-agents in zero-config cloud environments. What do you think about agents taking over the coding process?”
dlimeng192048 · x ·
“problem with cursor i think is it lacks the intergration with grok right now, meanwhile you can do chatgpt ,chatgpt work, codex all in the same app now, which is more easier i think if you want a all in one suite”
TechnicianHorror6142 · reddit ·
“you hand a cursor agent a /goal in plain english and it works unsupervised for an afternoon on your laptop, if that is not agi then tell me what the word was ever for. i run benchmarks for a living and i don't need one for this, i watched it.”

“Hi guys, Long time user and am overall pretty happy with cursor for my work flow. It manages the aws systems, git uploads, security fixes in aws and my website code changes pretty flawlessly (I'm on the ultra plan).”

“ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cowork, Openclaw, Codex, Multica, Grok Bot, Solo, Cursor Projects...”

“Cursor shipped Projects yesterday. A coordinator agent that, in Cursor's words, doesn't write code itself but directs other agents that do.”

“Models aside, the product itself has gotten so bad over the past several months. It has become unbearable to use day to day.”

“I try so hard to root for cursor. But their shit just does not work.”

“They have different limits. You get decent "Cursor model" usage limits. Make the plan in Fable, build in Auto/Grok/Composer, and review the PR with Fable.”

“We moved from VS Code to Cursor and realized nobody checks which version of your extensions actually gets installed”

Evening_Papaya_1551 · reddit ·
“I've been using this sub for like 2-3 months and i can tell you, this shit is probably only worth it for grok bot and grok. js hope grok 4.7 comes out much better and frontier lmao, im devastated on the xAI and cursor team, it needs more subsidy”

“> One of: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or OpenCodeWhat makes it incompatible with Pi, Zed or any other harness?”
cassianoleal · hn ·
“Thinking about trying Cursor Pro+ mainly for Fable 5.1. For anyone using Fable heavily on the $60 plan: how long does the monthly quota realistically last if you use high/extra-high reasoning for serious coding work?”

“Cursor + pstack is a killer combo, everything else is noise.”
LukeDiebold · x ·
“Cursor just launched Projects, replacing the old habit of starting a new chat for every coding task. Instead, a single coordinator agent runs in one persistent thread that stays active across the entire life of a feature, migration, or app.”

“Projects totally changed how i use cursor”
pengzheng_ · x ·
“I use cursor so many of my sessions start in GPT and switch to Claude.”

“I’ve been a Cursor fanboy since the beginning but am definitely drifting towards Claude, mostly cos the limits are more generous for Opus compared to Grok, and partly cos Musk.”
tnamorf · reddit ·
“Cursor now is shit. For 60 bucks u get like maybe 1.5b tokens of the grok 4.6 and much less of other.models. so till 4.7 will come (cause 4.6 is weak rn) dont buy it.”

“The limit for Sonnet/Opus included with Cursor Pro 20$ is ... a joke? You will burn the monthly rate in a few prompts.”
