Anthropic replaces Claude 'Projects' with complex new system, users frustrated

Anthropic has replaced its 'Projects' feature with a new, more complex system that users find less intuitive. The original 'Projects' allowed for organized folders for specific cases or tasks, enabling persistent access to case files and standing instructions within separate chats. The new iteration integrates this functionality into a single, ongoing chat with a coordinator bot, spawning threads into a side panel with various statuses. This change has frustrated users, particularly those who relied on the previous system for professional workflows, as it shifts the interface towards a SaaS dashboard rather than a simple organizational tool.
