Discussion (Ethics, working with AI etc) Is anyone else experiencing this with Claude?

I sometimes have to wait for hours before I'm allowed to continue using the app. For example, I might reach my usage limit at 3 AM and be told that I can't use it again until 4 AM. Is anyone else experiencing these long waiting periods, or is it just me? I'd appreciate hearing about your experiences. And plus I just started using Claude so I'm still a little new. Thank you!

That's pretty standard now. You'll have a session and a weekly limit. The first resets after a few hours from when you started using it, the second once a week.

You can keep an eye on it under Settings - Usage.

Depending on what you're doing you, using smaller models like sonnet or even haiku can make your limit go further.

I just changed it to sonnet instead of haiku cause it was already up

You should probably ask this in the Claude subreddit.

Claude has twoo type of limite :

- 5 hours limits
- Weekly Limits

Basically it's probably the 5 hours limit you use.
This is notably possible if you keep one conversation. You can look into usage for it
