I've only had a cursory look so far, and seen all the images I've ever generated, all audio snippets out of context and a ~100MB html chat file. The chat file includes all metadata, presumably chat and project names.
I did this to send a signal following the recent Dept. of War debacle. In a similar vein I also cancelled my subscription and accepted one month free, taking me into April.
I've paid since 2023 and was pretty much on auto-renew with it due to the strength of the models and the option to use codex. However, I'm happy to pay cursor for that privilege now, or make do on local models for basic questions and chains of thought.
The assumption of the new normal was shaken up a bit for me. I don't necessarily trust Anthropic as a drop in replacement either. I'd rather remain agnostic and just pay as required.
This forced reflection has also made me question the benefits I've had from my subscription in recent months. I no longer ask code questions there, that all happens elsewhere. I plan projects, but have been moving that over to assistant type services now, with the benefit of reminders and CLI tool integration (todoist - which I could even replace with a task-list.md and tracking if going to extremes).
Things are changing, and I appreciate the catalyst. I've got a month or so to decide on next steps. I'm largely inclined to just put the subscription money into coding and agent tools now, organising project and info data locally instead.
What are you doing?
