| 1 | Anthropic Leads top 10 models by $/spent | [Image: Anthropic Leads top 10 models by $/spent] Been digging into OpenRouter spend data for the top 10 models and a few things jumped out: Anthropic’s got 5 of the top 10, but Opus 4.7 and 4.8 are the ones with most spend, not Fable 5. OpenAI’s holding 3 spots, and GPT-5.6 Sol just got to the top 10. | 2026-07-18 00:55 GMT+8 | | /u/maferase | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Commenters mostly agree the chart supports a familiar conclusion: Claude/Anthropic looks expensive because token-usage rankings and dollar-spend rankings both point the same way, and one user says they left Claude because its models burn tokens heavily even on simple tasks. The main disagreement is about representativeness, since several commenters say OpenRouter spend is only estimated as tokens multiplied by token price and is skewed toward consumer/retail, backup-for-rate-limits, and smaller-startup agent traffic rather than direct enterprise procurement. The practical takeaway for operators is to treat OpenRouter as a useful signal for retail and fallback usage patterns, but not as a clean proxy for total market spend or enterprise adoption. Overall sentiment — post: mixed; author: neutral.

| 2 | anyone in here into 3d printing and using their images to make models? | [Image: anyone in here into 3d printing and using their images to make models?] was hopeful it would come out clearer but still happy with my sea goddess, i hope to get it painted close to the model art. used meshmixer, lycheeslicer, and meshy for working on the project. | 2026-07-18 11:52 GMT+8 | | /u/Squigels | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): The thread converges on a practical workflow: commenters mention using ChatGPT for TTRPG image generation, GPT Work for turntable GIFs, and then tools like Meshmixer, LycheeSlicer, and Meshy to get something printable, while also asking for AI-friendly 3D printing communities. The main disagreement is about printability and interpretation of the photos—one commenter says the piece “isn’t printable” and points to Thingiverse, while others clarify that the model appears to have been printed in resin already and that small floating droplets would not survive the print, so the real operator takeaway is that image-to-model results may need resin printing and manual paint finishing rather than expecting a clean direct translation. Overall sentiment — post: mixed; author: neutral.

That takes it from ~54GB to 3.9GB, small enough to fit and run on a phone, while keeping ~90% of the benchmark scores It’s true binary quantization (“binary g128”) -… | 2026-07-17 21:08 GMT+8 | | /u/ElmBark | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Commenters mostly fixate on the practical cost of running a 27B model on a phone: several mention rapid battery drain, heat, and even phones getting uncomfortably hot or burning hands, with one user calling the 32% to 30% drop in a short clip “insane.” At the same time, there is real technical interest in the 1-bit/ternary angle: one commenter notes that current inference still unpacks 1-bit weights into higher-precision math via a 16-bit floating-point scale, while another argues that NPUs or ASICs designed specifically for ternary operations could make this far more power efficient; a separate anecdote about mobile Stable Diffusion says NPU support was a game changer compared with CPU/GPU paths. Overall sentiment — post: mixed; author: neutral. Reply threads: 2026-07-17 23:47 GMT+8: post=concerned, author=neutral — They joke that the demo looks like the phone is draining battery in real time and that it may be “skin burns”… | 2026-07-18 01:15 GMT+8: post=concerned, author=neutral — They point out that the battery dropping from 32 to 30 during the short video is extreme. | 2026-07-18 02:27 GMT+8: post=positive, author=neutral — They argue that if 1-bit or ternary models become viable, Apple could design NPUs or an ASIC around ternary… |

There is no disagreement or broader debate in the comments, just a narrow implementation note that points to an extra proxy/dependency layer for some model backends. Overall sentiment — post: positive; author: neutral.

| 2 | Missing feature: Forking a chat | Documentation mentions there should be a /fork or some ‘fork button’ somewhere. Could anyone make a screenshot showing where it is? | 2026-07-17 03:07 GMT+8 | | /u/pwieczyk | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Commenters agree the functionality already exists today by regenerating a response or editing your own message, and one commenter says an explicit /fork command is planned for the next version. The main disagreement is about UX: several people want a clearer, explicit fork control instead of treating regenerate/edit as forking, with one suggesting LibreChat-style fork/merge UI and another preferring a true “copy chat” fork mode that can branch from earlier points and better support side topics. A practical operator note is that admin users can currently copy chats through analytics/model chat history, but the path is described as convoluted, and there is also mention that action plugins can provide an explicit fork button. Overall sentiment — post: positive; author: neutral. Reply threads: 2026-07-17 04:14 GMT+8: post=positive, author=neutral — They say fork already exists via regenerating a message or editing your own message, and that an explicit… | 2026-07-17 04:51 GMT+8: post=mixed, author=neutral — They agree the feature should exist but argue regen does not clearly communicate forking, and they prefer a… | 2026-07-17 19:01 GMT+8: post=mixed, author=neutral — They want a more literal “copy chat” fork mode that can branch from earlier points, plus better… |
| 3 | Need help getting ComfyUI integration to work | I followed this page (https://docs.openwebui.com/features/chat-conversations/image-generation-and-editing/comfyui/#connecting-comfyui-to-open-webui) but I couldn’t get it to work. I’m using this simple workflow (https://pastebin.com/SCgN5Fq8), which works fine in ComfyUI itself. | 2026-07-17 20:20 GMT+8 | | /u/muhdeerfakir | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): The only reply suggests the failure is likely a ComfyUI JSON node-ID mapping issue, specifically that the workflow may need an “88:” prefix on all node IDs, such as “88:6” for text nodes. The commenter adds a useful caveat that empty node IDs work fine in their setup and that only the Prompt field is mandatory, so the practical operator takeaway is to verify the exported JSON mapping rather than the ComfyUI workflow itself. Overall sentiment — post: positive; author: neutral. Reply threads: 2026-07-18 00:20 GMT+8: post=positive, author=neutral — They propose that the integration issue is probably caused by node ID mapping in the JSON and recommend… |

The author replies that they stitched the tool together from API documentation over a couple of hours and shared it because it works, and the thread contains no substantive disagreement about the tool itself beyond the request for an OSS option. Overall sentiment — post: neutral; author: positive. Reply threads: 2026-07-17 06:14 GMT+8: post=neutral, author=neutral — They ask whether there is an open-source option that can achieve similar results. | 2026-07-17 06:26 GMT+8: post=positive, author=neutral — They say they spent a couple of hours reading API documentation for both ends and shared the tool because… | 2026-07-17 06:31 GMT+8: post=positive, author=positive — They clarify that they want free models using workflows like ComfyUI instead of paid models and thank the… |

Scan your networks, discover devices, label and track them, all from a clean web UI or CLI. | 2026-07-18 08:44 GMT+8 | | /u/291-Group | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): The thread is split between commenters who dislike AI-generated announcement posts and call them “slop,” and commenters who say the writing is coherent, clear, and acceptable if it is honest about how it was produced. The only product-level interest is practical operator feedback: one user asks whether LAN Orangutan can scan across VLANs and create a topology map, while another points out that the AI-writing debate is overshadowing the actual tool announcement; a separate caveat is that using “we” in the post feels misleading if the GitHub commits are all from a single author. Overall sentiment — post: mixed; author: critical.

Had a few websites running from it. | 2026-07-18 00:30 GMT+8 | | /u/Quietgoer | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Comments were overwhelmingly appreciative of the DIY server as a clever, old-school box that likely had better real-world uptime than many modern “Docker spaghetti” setups, with one commenter explicitly comparing it to a modernization of simple detector radios in cigar boxes. The main technical caveats were practical rather than critical: the CF card was described as the bottleneck for LAN torrenting, and another thread suggested that a few strategic holes plus a 5mm fan would improve cooling, while one commenter joked it looked like it held “pure illegal stuff.” Overall sentiment — post: positive; author: positive. Reply threads: 2026-07-18 00:55 GMT+8: post=positive, author=positive — They praised the setup as a modern version of a simple detector radio in a cigar box and said they liked it. | 2026-07-18 00:47 GMT+8: post=positive, author=positive — They said they loved the setup and asked how well it ran and how much maintenance it needed. | 2026-07-18 01:08 GMT+8: post=positive, author=positive — They said it was great, but the CF card limited performance when pulling torrents over LAN, even though it… |

| 1 | Fable staying on Max | [Image: Fable staying on Max] Beginning July 20, Claude Fable 5 will be included in all Max and Team Premium plans, at 50% of limits. Pro and Team Standard users will continue to have access to Fable via usage credits, and will receive a one-time $100 credit. | 2026-07-18 10:18 GMT+8 | | /u/tessahannah | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Commenters mostly react to the July 20 usage reset rather than the product announcement itself: one notes bonus usage ends then, implying 33% less usage across all models including Fable, and several Pro users say Fable is not worth the token spend or current caps, with one already hitting Opus limits and falling back to Sonnet. The main disagreement is on competitive value, with some arguing Sol and Kimi v3/k3 are already strong enough alternatives while others say Fable mainly stands out on trained world knowledge and that there still are not enough real options. Practical takeaway for operators: the discussion centers on capacity, price-per-token, and whether newer models are actually better enough to justify scarce quota, not on a clear quality win for Fable. Overall sentiment — post: critical; author: neutral. Reply threads: 2026-07-18 10:44 GMT+8: post=concerned, author=neutral — They point out that the bonus usage ends on July 20, which means 33% less usage for all models including… | 2026-07-18 11:04 GMT+8: post=critical, author=neutral — They argue that Fable is unsustainable under the current limits and would be unusable even on a weekly basis. | 2026-07-18 12:44 GMT+8: post=skeptical, author=neutral — They say they already hit their Opus cap regularly as a Pro user and that Fable was not worth the token… |

I applied claude OpenSource Program 3 months ago, and no response. | 2026-07-18 00:59 GMT+8 | | /u/1996fanrui | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Commenters were overwhelmingly congratulatory and framed the 6 months of Claude Max 20x as a deserved reward for a long-time open source maintainer, with multiple replies saying the OP had earned it after 10+ years of commits and should enjoy the bag. The only real pushback was light humor—one person joked it is really a Claude usage tracker and another made a “$1 trillion app idea” quip—while a more earnest reply defended open source maintainer benefits and told people not to be jealous; there was no substantive debate about the program’s legitimacy or any technical serving details. Overall sentiment — post: positive; author: positive. Reply threads: 2026-07-18 03:12 GMT+8: post=neutral, author=neutral — They joked that the free Claude Max plan will probably just become a Claude usage tracker. | 2026-07-18 03:50 GMT+8: post=neutral, author=neutral — They made a joke about a “$1 trillion app idea” and asked others not to steal it. | 2026-07-18 04:19 GMT+8: post=positive, author=positive — They argued that commenters should understand what an open source maintainer is and said the OP earned the… |

| 1 | Fable gone? | LAST EDIT: Monitoring - We have applied a fix to resolve the erroneous requirement for usage credits on Fable 5, and are monitoring to ensure no further issues. You may need to relaunch Claude.ai (http://Claude.ai) or Claude Code to restore access as expected. | 2026-07-18 02:19 GMT+8 | | /u/bakanoace | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Commenters largely agree they are seeing the same Fable access problem and expected it to last until the stated July 19 end date, so the immediate reaction is concern that the service either bugged out or changed early. The main disagreement is whether this is a temporary credits-gating glitch, an imminent rollout of Fable into Pro plans, or a real sunset; several users say they would prefer Anthropic to either make the availability permanent or at least communicate changes before flipping the switch. Practical takeaway for operators is that Fable appears unstable enough that people are unsure whether to plan around it yet, and there is explicit demand for clearer lifecycle/status messaging before depending on it for software work. Overall sentiment — post: concerned; author: neutral. Reply threads: 2026-07-18 02:19 GMT+8: post=concerned, author=neutral — They say they experienced the same credits-related issue and were expecting Fable to still be available until… | 2026-07-18 03:01 GMT+8: post=concerned, author=neutral — They want Anthropic to either stop extending Fable or make it permanent because they cannot plan software… | 2026-07-18 02:25 GMT+8: post=positive, author=neutral — They speculate that the credits error means Fable is about to be announced as included in Pro plans. |
| 2 | fable got pulled off the subscription? | I was using fable & it was about to generate report. But claude CLI suddenly stopped with a notice “usage credits are required for this model” And bam! | 2026-07-18 02:20 GMT+8 | | /u/Entire_Blaze | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Commenters broadly confirm that Claude CLI/Fable access flipped off unexpectedly and then came back, with multiple users seeing the same “usage credits are required for this model” notice and one reporting the model returned after a short outage. The practical operator takeaway is that existing terminal sessions could not be reattached to Fable, so users had to finish in a “good ending state” with Opus, restart, or sign back into the web UI; one user also noted extra credits were charged and plans to keep usage limits off until needed. The unresolved disagreement is whether this was an accidental glitch or an intentional change, with speculation that Fable may be getting moved from usage-limited access into an ongoing model, while others would see that as bad behavior if deliberate. Overall sentiment — post: concerned; author: neutral.

We all have varying amounts of workloads at different times of the week, so… | 2026-07-16 18:54 GMT+8 | | /u/Computer_Scientist4 | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Commenters mostly agree with the core idea that users should be able to set their own usage limits or at least get warnings, but they also note the operator-side tradeoff that service owners may lose flexibility to throttle by user when load is high. Several replies turn the idea into concrete product mechanics: Codex already has a faster mode that costs 1.5 usage, one user proposes a power-company-style opt-in where people accept severe peak throttling in exchange for perks like an extra monthly reset, and another mentions a “wait and save” mode that runs within 24 hours at a discount. The main caveat is scale: one commenter says this becomes much more relevant with 10M active users and hours-long tasks spread across global time zones, while another bluntly says faster service needs “the new chips.” Overall sentiment — post: positive; author: neutral.

| 2 | To the codex team, if you remove the 5hrs limits ever, i will go to the 100$ plan | I love working without having the 5-hour window, so my Plus account lasts one day of heavy usage without the 5-hour limits. Before that, I didn’t understand why to go to a Pro plan, but now I know why I will pay $100+. | 2026-07-18 01:06 GMT+8 | | /u/rjn2-8 | Community reaction (frontier/gpt-5.4-mini): Commenters mostly interpret the $100/$200 Codex tiers as a retention and monetization strategy rather than a simple response to usage demand: one argues OpenAI profits more from getting users hooked on faster workflows so they later pay corporate/API prices, while another says Pro may even cost them more per user than Plus. The concrete operational caveat is that removing the five-hour window is reported alongside throttling, tasks spinning for 10-60 minutes, and capacity failures, with one commenter blaming reset abuse and another noting that OpenAI is still taking on more customers; the main pro-upgrade takeaway is that some users already see enough ROI from Codex to justify much higher monthly spend.
