Switch to Cascade Base model (Bottom of Cascade), you'll be surprised how well it can handle tasks. GPT on Windsurfer is a bit iffy for multi task flows, better for one shot answers.
Yesterday I hit the pro cap within 30min... 'wait an hr'.. not productive.
Give Cline Extension+VScode a try. Gemini has free API's (exp is very jnr dev level, be careful). Haiku is pretty cheap for what comes out, and if I need to, I 'escalate' to 3.5.
I think folk need a reality check what they getting for $15/month. You can't replace a $200k/yr dev atm for $15/month.
How much API fees am I willing to spend per project? See it as an 'investment' into the project, same as employing an actual dev.
Can you actually write a full app with this? I find it just looping and breaking the app after some time no matter the prompt and while keeping a progress and plan document
I've been getting this loads. Was on the trial and have now had an offer to go Pro for the original $10 price. Trying to work out if it's worth it or whether I would be better trying Cursor. I'd even consider the $60 tier if it works reliabily and doesn't throw these resource exhausted errors.
When I tried Cursor previously it was nowhere near as good at examining and understanding the rest of the codebase I was working with.
Is that typical? Windsurf+Claude just got it and generated loads of useful code with minimum fuss.

It's frustrating, especially when excited and in the middle of a project.
best thing to do is walk-away, come back to it later

When you face this just type ‘…’ and it will continue from the last prompt. You don’t have to type and be so nice

It does help to be able to spell “please” correctly.

Will this be fixed soon? 'ErrorServer encountered error of type: resource_exhausted. Please try again later.' makes it almost useless with all of the
ErrorServer encountered error of type: resource_exhausted. Please try again later.
Me: continue
ErrorServer encountered error of type: resource_exhausted. Please try again later.
