someone on reddit just posted 11 claude things after 18 months of daily
use, and most people using claude have never touched half of them 🤯
went through the whole list. these 5 are the ones that actually change how you use it 👇
→ Custom Styles. make one called "skeptical senior engineer" that pushes back on your code instead of agreeing with everything. 3 minutes to set up. honestly the single biggest output jump there is.
→ Projects. drop your context, style guide, past work in once as project knowledge. stop re-pasting the same thing into every chat. people burn 100+ hours before they figure this out.
→ default to Sonnet 4.6, not Opus 4.7. it's faster and most tasks don't need Opus. save Opus for the gnarly architectural stuff. the limit complaints just stop.
→ Artifacts can call the API now. you can build a working ai tool inside an artifact. people call it Claudeception. a client-brief generator that calls Sonnet from inside an html artifact, built in an hour. wild.
→ subagents in Claude Code. "spin off a subagent to run the tests while i keep coding." parallel work that used to only happen in your head. almost nobody uses them.
the realest line in the whole post: generic output means a generic prompt. that's a skill issue, not a model issue.
what's the one claude thing that took you way too long to find? 👇
“Hindi naman malalaman ng tatay mo na ginagamit kita, baby” si tito talaga kahit nasa labas lang si papa pinasok pa rin ako dito sa kwarto para gamitin. Hindi ka ba naaalagaan ni tita kaya ako yung kinakantot mo kapag dumadalaw ka dito, tito?
