Is it just me, or does it feel like AI coding is getting more expensive instead of cheaper?

I’ve recently started hitting Cursor’s $20 limit much faster, and once that’s reached, it becomes almost unusable. Even the smallest suggestions are trashy.

As for alternatives, I haven’t found anything that matches the chat experience for larger edits + good direct AI-powered autocompletes.

Testing Kiro now, but autocompletes mostly don’t work at all.

Maybe I just need to get used to using Claude in the terminal for bigger tasks and save Cursor for direct edits only 🤔

Yes. They attract a bunch of users with low prices. Then they raise prices. Then they use the old user counts multiplied by the new prices to make investors think they are swimming in cash and worth putting $40B more into.
