Hope you are now in 1% claude users!

What's the most challenging thing you are facing while using Claude?

Mike Schlottman's avatar

Definitely running into token limits as you wrote about, and the initial setup in Claude Code was the steepest learning curve.

Which one was getting more token usage on your Claude?

I fixed the model switching, and it worked so well for me.

Thank you! I'm fairly new to AI and it's alot to keep up with everything. I understand that proper and precise prompts are critical. But you taught me that part of what I'm intuitively doing is correct - stack multiple tasks/questions in one question. Should I do that first in Opus then switch to either Sonnet and Haiku? And is Thinking the same as Extended Thinking? I did turn off thinking. It's also prompting me to update, which I think is ok. It's not upgrading, just an update. Especially for a newbie, your suggestions and fixes are terrific! I don't understand anything about code because I don't code, but I've used it alot for astrocartography astrology and my resume. And the summarization thing every 15 questions and then starting a new chat is definitely a gamechanger, as is editing the prompt itself instead of asking an additional question. Wow. Thank you so much for this! Looking forward to learning more.
