Yeah, I was using 4.6 way more than 4.7. Pulling 4.6 from the web chat also means we lose access to Extended Thinking there. So they're saving on compute. It's hard not to assume this was part of the motivation behind the 4.8 release timing.

On web and mobile I can still select Opus 4.6, after a chat using 4.8, listed under other models. Extended thinking is a toggle in the effort menu
When I select 4.7 or 4.8 Extended thinking is replaced by adaptive thinking, but maybe I've understood the comment wrong and you meant 'when they pull 4.6 from web chat'?
Oh, it's back! It'd disappeared from my "More Models" list and has now returned. Odd, but great.
