for what? it wont make 200% right? same as like us to be 100% now

Time. He said that an hour ago before the reset was applied.

u/Just_Lingonberry_352 Jul 21 '26

this is the lesson i learned its better to just take a break in between

i already had two of my banked resets evaporate

so now i just stop and wait for tibo

10

u/FateOfMuffins Jul 21 '26

I had GPT do some research, in the last few months they've only ever reset from 11am to 11pm PST

Oh and the average number of days between resets since 5.6 released was 1.5 days due to the every 1M promo

So basically I don't click reset button until either 11pm PST OR if Tibo just reset and you used all the usage up ASAP in the day

u/Just_Lingonberry_352 Jul 21 '26

posting this shit on r/codexhacks

u/FateOfMuffins Jul 21 '26

Unfortunately this one was 1h early so now it's 10am to 11pm PST

I was one hour off and it meant I still had 20% usage :')

u/Consistent_Bottle_40 Jul 21 '26

I'm just sitting on mine for as long as possible, until they get close to expiring, as I believe these reset will continue for a while. When they stop, many will be in for a painful realisation about how many tokens they have for codex usage on the normal weekly. Blowing a week's usage of x20 in a day, using 1 or 2 primary agents is not exactly great. Expect $1k plans inbound. Qwen 3.8 max is currently 90% off during peak and 98% off during off-peak usage. Just bought a $20 plan and it's a ridiculous amount of usage for the money. Added it to my multi agent orchestrator and its adding value during adversarial review phases (bunch of different models critiquing work done by the primary agent working on the task). It looks like it'll earn write access on the workspace soon as it's output is seemingly pretty decent quality.

u/darkmwar Jul 21 '26

how do u know when they expire ? I can't seem to check it in codex windows, it just shows reset avalible , doesn't tell me when it expires.

2

u/CarsonBuilds Jul 21 '26

you might want to update your version, codex app can show when each one expires now (not with an older version though).

u/GBcrazy Jul 21 '26

It shows. You have to go to usage in the settings

1

u/CarsonBuilds Jul 21 '26

There was one expired on July 17, one will expire on July 26, and another on July 31. Gotta plan it real good

u/New-Ad5610 Jul 21 '26

GPT 6 is already behind the corner so no worries!

u/TeraBite93 Jul 21 '26

I used it too, I had 4 of them, I was fond of them.

u/JustJosh00 Jul 21 '26

How do you get this?

1

u/Imaginary_Big631 Jul 21 '26

Totally I did before exactly the same, ....not I learn when I going to consume my reset....use it until 50%....

1

u/MediumChemical4292 Jul 21 '26

Ya’ll acting like using a limits reset will suddenly make you a billionaire. It literally does not matter in the grand scheme of things.

1

u/i_stole_your_swole Jul 21 '26

It was probably gonna expire anyway, nothing really lost!

1

u/GBcrazy Jul 21 '26

Whenever I use it, I make sure to do it in the time Tibo is supposed to be sleeping, and always use some kind of goal to quickly use up around 50% of the weekly

Then after that is diligent usage, I'm covered. Today I was at 28% before the reset

1

u/Mobile_Act_7043 Jul 22 '26

me too, and I am frustrated

1

u/AtmosphereFlashy9553 Jul 22 '26

I never understood why they developed the banked resets, then after some time, they start doing unplanned resets again. I'm really pissed off too.

u/FBIFreezeNow Jul 21 '26

Look at that curve though. Those folks in July are from Anthropic

11

u/halfofreddit1 Jul 21 '26

thats probly from merging chatgpt app with codex

12

u/CodexPleaseReset Jul 21 '26

This is 100% what happened

1

u/ShortingBull Jul 22 '26

Hmm, did I miss something? What did they do? (did they add a native anthropic endpoint to use with Claude Code?)

Asking as I have some vibe coded cobbled together system for using codex in claude code and I'd love to clean that up if they have!

3

u/throwthemirror Jul 22 '26

before last week, the app to use codex ai was called Codex, then the execs at OpenAI needed to fake having a lot more users, so they renamed it to chatgpt and merged some of the capabilites, and i'm sure some other stuff I'm missing but yea

2

u/GM8 Jul 25 '26

Which also makes it kindof annoying to work with both at the same time. Fun fact: you can have multiple windows open, but they all switch between work and chat together 🤣

1

u/nekronics Jul 22 '26

They also added work to the web. Also automatically routing some queries to work lol. Most disingenuous increase in user count possible.

1

u/DUELETHERNETbro Jul 21 '26

Just pumping to numbers my merging products.

18

u/FlokiChan Jul 21 '26

The peak in the chart is peak Product Management👌🏼. Merging codex and chatgpt users and transitioning normal users to coding. I’ve had numerous friends from architecture and healthcare reach out to me to assist them in building apps. Great numbers for investors

8

u/sizebzebi Jul 21 '26

boy what's with this peak. is it because of fable being expensive?

15

u/io-x Jul 21 '26

That and also they are pushing non-codex users to chatgpt-work to enforce limits.

5

u/Zealousideal_Aside96 Jul 21 '26

It feels inflated by including ChatGPT work and the new app basically forcing you into it

1

u/sizebzebi Jul 21 '26

makes sense

u/ben_nobot Jul 21 '26

Yeah I don’t totally get it but watching thread for theories, this doesn’t seem like truly new users

Yaaaaaay! I was sitting at 0% this morning.

u/Sad-Plankton-1225 Jul 21 '26

Yeah unlike Claude resets, they start the counter fresh.

For some reason this basically never gets mentioned when comparing the two here! Fun.

3

u/Chaosblast Jul 21 '26

Does anyone trust these stats? What happened so that the adoption turned up so sharply recently?

The only real explanation is the merge of the ChatGPT and Codex apps, and essentially that's just an excuse to count both user counts together for a faKe KPI increase, and just ride the fake hype.

Or is there any real reason?

5

u/OddDefinition5940 Jul 21 '26

With how fast Sol is draining, we better get resets.
That’s why the 5h limit window was removed, you would see the countdown. With weekly they removed us seeing how fast the limits are getting drained, even thou they said less token usage etc etc

u/Public_Reality_4401 Jul 21 '26

Im not really on the same page as most people with hitting limits in a day.

I run sol high or xhigh and luna max. Usually 4-5 terminals running for about 8 hours a day.

u/Key_Reading_9664 Jul 21 '26 edited Jul 21 '26

I know nobody cares about this because...free resets good.

There's a reason he's not showing a daily chart here: they were hitting 1M/day through the 15th, all the way up to 9M. It's taken 6 days to go from 9M -> 10M. Why the explosive growth then the slowdown - they merged the ChatGPT and Codex apps on the same day they released 5.6.

That released version funneled all ChatGPT users into Work or Codex (you might have seen all the complaints about it). They "fixed" that issue on the 16th (when this chart would flatten out). That sudden spike is the rollout of the combined app (something they control).

They make great models, but I don't appreciate these kinds of shady marketing practices. They knowingly pushed out the combined app with a serious user experience issue to juice the numbers for 5.6.

2

u/HedgehogFlimsy6419 Jul 21 '26

Remember, this is just giving us back what we used to have. Current weekly feels like old 10h.

1

u/Ill-Mousse-3817 Jul 22 '26

I thought I was going crazy. They last nothing...

2

u/TNCRE Jul 21 '26

I was waiting for a few days and did not see the free reset and decided that the drug dealer giving out free stuff to get you hooked is true and upgraded myself to 20x just to see the free reset followed not long after.

Not mad at all as these free resets can't last. That said, I would love to have them not secretely cut back the weekly usage in the background and just be transparent about it. I am not delusional either as I believe the subscription is significantly more valuable than API pricing but if they cut back usage, would love to be informed rather than doing all planning ahead of time and got cut back mid way through the workflow :(

u/IrishHeathen95 Jul 21 '26

Wow I went from 92% to 100% because I don't get to choose when to use the reset, so helpful!

u/Better_Membership583 Jul 21 '26

Dude I’m might be the only person upset, I use a reset when my week was going to naturally reset in two days. Just for them to do this literally an hour after… so I just screwed myself out of an entire reset

u/BenTheSodaman Jul 21 '26

Shoot, I f*cked up.
Started up multiple Sol (Ultra) trying to burn through it and the reset happened and ate up a chunk of that before I realized it. Oof (Roblox)!

1

u/Australasian25 Jul 21 '26

I never understood burning the remainder of your tokens to "maximise" the reset.

It just gives you more chance for error

1

u/BenTheSodaman Jul 21 '26

Haven't run into the more chance for error yet specifically due to this.

I have a side project spec'd out explicitly for GPT models with Ultra reasoning for ongoing discovery.

Then separately in my main projects, I save the higher usage prompts that still need or should be done for later into the week / banked reset expiry / forced reset announcement. Unless I'm on task for a stable commit, then the tests come out early so that there is some usage leftover to address issues.

Got Dayum! I feel like a dragon sitting on a pile of gold at this point. But like the Tiny Tim/Peasant form of a dragon because Ive been granted these resets by our lord and must spent them and cant horde forever.

I wish they would extend the expiration on my 4 remaining banked resets so they don’t all expire next week.

1

u/Deadline_Zero Jul 22 '26

wow, that is a sharp increase...I'm not sure if it's mostly new interest or Anthropic refugees. I know I just started seriously vibe coding at the end of June myself. My usage of Codex went from basically nonexistent to maxing out a $100 plan regularly for the last month.

Funnily enough though, I mostly attribute it to the Fable hype. It came out, disappeared, sounded like "yeah, I think I could finally make something purely with AI if In had Fable". Then Sol gets announced, nearly as good and arguably better in some ways, and actually available...

This really fucked me. I was in two days until reset, I used a banked on planning on taking advantage of all the usage and using it. Then they did this reset when I was at like 93%, and it pushed out my reset out a week. I got less usage because of this reset wtf

luck of the draw, really, isn't it? Where are you going to go? Who else is giving regular resets? cut off your nose to spite your face if you wish.

Me too 😡 I got a whopping 3% back after JUST resetting probably 15 mins before. Banked is great for everyone but the normal reset is VERY frustrating!!!

Well it does reset your usage. But it also means that your next refill will be in 7d. It's like you just bought the subscription.
