I have been a long time Cursor user but it is really expensive even if it is convenient to switch models. I recently switched to just Max on Claude and Max on Codex. That is cheaper than Cursor if you use it a lot.


That hasn't been my experience but maybe it's because in cursor I'm really only using the auto feature all the time. It's been almost a month of daily usage and I'm still only at like 70% quota.


I find that auto wrecks my code base and makes stupid mistakes. I find for routine tasks I need at least sonnet and then it is reliable.
