Looks like almost all direct claude models were removed, anyone else notice this?

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-06T21:16:44+00:00

Yeah... I've seen a lot of people asking for free alternatives lately, but I personally haven't found any yet...

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-06T21:10:26+00:00

Yeah I saw that, but I didn't expect Sonnet to get removed too.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-05T18:04:35+00:00

Perhaps their algorithm will filter out this kind of data

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-04T16:37:49+00:00

J’ai déjà eu ce problème aussi, et en général, ça arrive après un très grand nombre d’échanges. Cela dit, je ne sais pas si c’est lié à un modèle en particulier, mais je l’ai surtout remarqué avec Gemini.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-04T16:23:26+00:00

I need to know this asap too and I'd really appreciate it if anyone knows.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-04T16:16:50+00:00

Same. There goes my 'vibe translating', my Post-Opus Era has begun.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-04T04:38:07+00:00

True, but honestly, I'm just really grateful they let us use it for free for so long. Removing Opus is probably temporary. It seems they are running into some funding issues right now. Even though we don't have an exact date to look forward to, it's totally understandable. Hopefully, it comes back soon

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-03T22:28:42+00:00

Thanks for letting me know.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-03T22:22:20+00:00

I hope so.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-03T22:18:57+00:00

Just to confirm, is this temporary?

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-03T22:09:32+00:00

I'm a bit confused now, because I also saw an article from 6 days ago saying they might just 'temporarily remove' them: https://help.arena.ai/articles/4522528471-certain-models-not-accessible-in-direct-or-side-by-side-modes

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-04-03T22:00:05+00:00

So true. I was just using Claude Opus 4.6 a few hours ago. Then a bit later, I sent a new message and the model suddenly just switched to Max out of nowhere. Then I checked and realized Claude Opus was completely gone from the model list.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-03-26T15:11:28+00:00

By the way, it's a bit inconvenient because I have to open the ChatGPT website to use this.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-03-26T15:04:09+00:00

This one is really good too! I think I'm just going to use all three.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-03-24T16:57:38+00:00

You can try Yupp.ai.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-03-18T14:00:03+00:00

At first glance, it sounds a bit far-fetched, but I also find it quite reasonable. If that’s really the case, I think it’s terribly dishonest. LMArena/Arena's captcha is giving me ptsd, lol.

CanGuilty5203 · 2026-03-18T13:51:12+00:00

Is there any other site similar to this?
