What do Claude Code users do for tab auto complete, if anything? GitHub Copilot Free tier?


Yeah, that's enough for my usage.

GitHub typically reports that I'm using 25-30% of the free tier, and 100% of that will be from code completions in my editor. I do maybe 3 hours solid coding a day on average.

I also pay for Gemini Pro for non-coding research. I did have it hooked up to my VSCode a few months ago, but it got reset back to GH Copilot at some point and I've not found a reason to fix it.


It's more of a conversational TUI than it is a code editor. You tell Claude to code for you. No need for autocomplete in that regime.


I think they still see it as a key part of their workflow, and they're asking whether they'll have to pay for more than one service
