¬ just serendipity 🍀 (not just serendipity)

Previously.

There’s always a sense of relief whenever we say goodbye.

It oftentimes sparks joy ✨.

It frees up our minds to focus on something else.

Or perhaps to focus on nothing at all.

Serenity is calm.

A goodbye need not burn bridges.

We can be thankful and simply move on.

We can absorb lessons, good and bad, and do better next time.

Today I decided to completely uninstall Amp Code from my systems and delete my account there.

Initially I thought I’d document the reasons why in this blog post, but I decided not to. Sorry, fellas.

I am thankful to Amp for making me realize how important an agent harness is for developer experience.

I am thankful to Amp for enlightening me about threads (sessions) and how to structure my agentic coding thinking.

Arrivederci, Amp.

What’s next? I am putting my bets on open ecosystems. Watch out for pi and OpenCode.

Amp Free Ad-supported free daily allowance of Amp usage (learn more)

Amp Free is full for now.

Note from the Amp Team (2026-03-11):

Amp is growing fast, and we’re sprinting on the next version. When it’s ready, we’ll reopen Amp Free to new users. We paused Amp Free for some inactive users so we can focus on regular users as we’re working on new stuff, and we’ll let you know if or when your access resumes. See news post.
