A user was accepted into Claude for open-source, receiving 6 months of Claude Max 20x for free.…
just got accepted into Claude for open-source, still feels a little surreal to be honest
I maintain an open-source project that's picked up a decent number of stars on github, so I thought I'd give it a shot. a few days later, the invite came through
I already have a Claude team premium slot through work that covers everything I need comfortably, so getting Claude MAX 20X free for six months on top of that feels like more than my share, especially knowing how many people out there would make incredible use of it
huge thank you to Anthropic for running this program and for genuinely supporting open-source maintainers, it means a lot
I'm keeping the access for now, mostly because I put real work into this project and want to keep building on it, or maybe someone will need it, I'm very aware of how fortunate this is...
if you maintain something open-source and you're on the fence about applying, it's worth a shot, you never know

curious what kind of projects got accepted, would love to hear other people's experience with this
