The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Still debating which iOS version to support? The data is in. 📈
As of February 12, 2026, the adoption rates are clear:
🔥 iOS 26 (Latest):
- 74% of all devices introduced in the last 4 years.
- 66% of all active devices globally.
🧊 iOS 18:
- Only 20% of newer devices still on iOS 18.
- 24% of all-time devices.
If you aren't optimizing for the latest APIs, you're missing out on nearly 3/4 of the most active, high-value users.
74% of your most active users are on the latest OS. Stop wasting time fixing bugs for the minority and start leveraging the latest APIs to build better features. 🛠️🟩
Build for the majority, ship faster.

We’ve agreed to a partnership with @SpaceX that will substantially increase our compute capacity.
This, along with our other recent compute deals, means that we’ve been able to increase our usage limits for Claude Code and the Claude API.
Over 55% of 3-day trials are cancelled on Day 0. That’s over half gone before they can possibly have experienced the value of your app.
But the problem isn’t your paywall. It’s not even your onboarding. It’s the (missing) step in-between: the post-purchase screen.
AI made everyone a "Developer," but don't let it make you a sloppy Founder. 🛑💻
With the AI wave, thousands are shipping apps without knowing the basics of Semantic Versioning (SemVer). If your version numbers look like random dates or "v1.2.999," this is for you.
Stop guessing. Use X.Y.Z (Major.Minor.Patch):
🔴 MAJOR (X): You changed the core engine or API. It's a breaking change. Existing users might face issues if they don't update properly. (v1.0.0 -> v2.0.0)
🟡 MINOR (Y): You added a cool new feature (like a new AI model) but didn't break the old ones. It's backward compatible. (v1.1.0 -> v1.2.0)
🟢 PATCH (Z): You fixed a bug or tweaked a padding. No new features, just polishing. (v1.2.1 -> v1.2.2)
Why care? Because as you scale, your logs, your team, and your App Store reviewers need a clear map of what changed.
Build with AI, but manage like a Senior Engineer. 📈🟩

Solo founders: Your users don't want "More Features." They want "Less Friction." 🛑✨
It’s easy to think that adding one more feature will finally bring in the users. But usually, it just adds:
- More bugs to fix.
- More code to maintain.
- More confusion for the user.
The 80/20 of Solo Success:
80% of your value comes from 20% of your features.
My focus right now? Instead of building the "Next big thing" in my apps, I'm doubling down on making the "Current thing" flawless. 🛠️
Code less. Listen more. Refine everything. 📈🟩
What’s one feature you’re actually THINKING of removing? 👇
#buildinpublic #SaaS #indiehackers #solofounder #ProductDesign
We all love the "God-mode" of Opus or Gemini Pro, but using them for routine maintenance or quick internal logic is just burning credits. 💸
My current workflow:
🏗️ Heavy Lifting: Claude Opus + Gemini Pro for new architecture and complex logic.
🛠️ Maintenance: Claude Sonnet + Gemini Flash for refactoring existing code and internal tools.
When the context is already clear and you know the 'What' and 'How' of your system, speed beats raw intelligence every time.
Optimize your tools like you optimize your code. Efficiency > Hype.
What's your go-to model for routine 'Vibe Coding'? 👇
#buildinpublic #SaaS #indiehackers #solofounder #AI #Gemini #Claude
Tried everything in this list. A few months ago I would say antigravity, but now it’s obviously Claude code for me. I think it’s not only how powerful the provider is; the majority of people tend to keep what they used to at the first place. But I would definitely switch to another if I found something performing better.
Exactly. Using Opus or Gemini Pro for everything like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. For maintaining existing codebase where the context is clear, I’ve been leaning on Sonnet and even Gemini Flash. It's lightning fast and gets the job done when you already know the 'what' and 'how' of your system. Save the pro models for the actual heavy lifting.
Checklist before sending your first app release: 🚀📱
The first ship is 10% coding and 90% "Did I forget something?" In the era of Vibe Coding, shipping fast is easy, but shipping "Right" is the real win.
Before you hit 'Submit for Review', run this:
1. The Critical Path Manual Test: AI handles the vibes, you handle the truth. Manually test Login -> Core Feature -> Logout. If this breaks, nothing else matters.
2. Analytics (Stop Shipping Blind): Integrate Posthog or Firebase. If users drop off at the paywall, you need to know why before you can fix it.
3. The Revenue Check: Double-check RevenueCat in sandbox. Ensure the "Restore Purchase" button works.
4. The "Boring" Metadata: Privacy policy? TOU? Screenshots look native? Support email working? Delete my data option? Correct promotional images? These are the real gatekeepers.
5. The Momentum Engine: Implement a review prompt after the first "Success Moment." Early 5-star feedback is fuel for your growth.
The goal isn't a perfect app, it's a solid foundation to iterate on.
