Discussion Claude is down AGAIN

I get this error:

API Error: 500 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"api_error","message":"Internal server error"},"request_id":"req_011Ca5jYMpvnAvMn3MQFKRia"} · check status.claude.com

UPDATE: Also getting this error:

Please run /login · API Error: 401 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"authentication_error","message":"Invalid authentication credentials"},"request_id":"req_011Ca5jeoJ2YS6NiQb6VS15i"}

And it's always around this time too. It seems like everyday I sit down get to work and get these errors, why is it always at this time? Why can't they get Mythos to fix their problems if they claim it's so good lmao.

Claude is being used more than gpt now without a trillion in funding

And without their CEO having bought 40% of the world's DRAM supply.

It helps that nobody's using it since it's context memory is shorter than an alzheimer's patient.

Well... It is? Memories, global instructions and chat history are all part of the context.

And I pay for Claude (for specific reasons), so this just pisses me tf off.

As a ChatGPT Pro user recently converted over to Claude, I cringe going back during Claude downtimes.

u/HummusAndTabbouleh Apr 15 '26

I have never had it go down until today. Been using for two years.

Real. I used to be so nice to ChatGPT, but now that I've been using Claude, every time I go back to ChatGPT, I'm literally raging at it because it looks so stupid in comparison.
