What is the evidence that "dozens of users publicly canceled their subscriptions"?
A total of 4 users claimed that they did or would cancel their subscriptions in the comments, and 3/4 of them hedged by saying that they would cancel if this problem were real or happened to them. It looks like only 1 person claimed to have cancelled already.
Is there some other discussion you're looking at?
Submitted title was "Cursor IDE support hallucinates lockout policy causes mass user cancellations" - I've de-massed it now.
Since the HN title rule is "Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait" and the OP title is arguably misleading, I kept the submitter's title. But if there's a more accurate or neutral way to say what happened, we can change it again.
Yeah, it's a reddit thread with 59 comments.
Yet if you went by the HN comments, you'd think it were the biggest item on primetime news.
People are really champing at the bit.
Currently, there are 59 comments after the post was deleted and the thread was locked.
It is worth mentioning that the comments that remain are valuable, as they highlight the captured market size and express concern about the impending deterioration of the situation.
