Fable is supposed to return to subscription plans, unless I'm missing something: https://jacob.gold/posts/fable-5-removal-is-temporary/

  Anthropic says the change is about capacity and is temporary. In its launch announcement on June 9, 2026, it says:

  "After this point—when sufficient capacity allows us to do so—we aim to restore Fable 5 as a standard part of subscription plans. We intend to do this as quickly as we can."

They can’t keep their current models working on subscriptions[1], so we’ll see if this is marketing or not in the future. It’s smart to tease it no matter what, ”insert classic first hit is free drug reference”.

Apple claims their price increases are temporary too. I'll believe it when I see it. The capacity limitations are not going away any time soon.
