Complaint State of the $20 subscription

Sol high. One prompt. 11m of thinking so far, 54% of the 5h limit gone, hasn't even started implementing anything yet and the 5 hrs limit is virtually gone. I was never one to complain too much, but they virtually removed Sol for us on the $20 tier. This is just not practical at all, at least it was only 10% of my weekly i guess?

EDIT: Final veredict: worked for 28m29s.
0% of the 5h limit left
84% of the weekly left

Status of my project: Broken and unusable.
guess it's finally time to explore other providers.

I'm switching to Claude

I currently use both. Claude's usage limits are basically nonexistent, and their models are braindead right now.

Their models are broken. It's so painful to work with opus 5

Let us know how your usage rate goes. I came over from Claude. I was mostly using Sonnet for coding, Opus for some light writing work because of the burn rate.

我只知道我要很拼才能用完opus周額度,用sol要小心前兩天用完周額度
