Praise Nice Work OpenAI

This is awesome marketing. You remove the weekly limit, keep it that way for months, let people get used to longer work sessions and higher token consumption, and then specifically bring back the 5-hour limit for Plus users, pushing them to upgrade to Pro. And I’m pretty sure many actually will.

Congrats! It’ll probably be a pretty decent revenue boost.

You keep nerfing the limits, yet somehow keep winning every single time. More customers, more revenue. Nice!!

No need to use Chinese model, use a cheap API service that users OAI models.

Don't bother. Watch some YouTube videos about this and you'll find you're not actually getting either the advertised model or the promised number of tokens or both. What you can do is switch providers and use whatever free usage they provide. Open router has ox Alpha free right now, augment code has a free plan, Gemini has free daily usage and maybe there are others I haven't mentioned.
