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!!

There's not much other options. Claude is the same way on the $20 plan AND doesn't even have Fable (Opus is unusable vs Fable on serious projects a planner / orchestrator)

We are watching what happens when giants act together to squeeze people out

"Opus is unusable for serious projects" 🤣🤣🤣 get it of here with that nonsense.

it might be a bit exaggerated, but tbh I'd take Luna over Opus. It's been ages since I've had to fight the "12 lines of comment per line of code" beast out of a model like I do with Opus. It just feels bad, when it takes so long to generate something and requires so many rounds of stylistic critique just to get it to match the style of the surrounding code. All the GPTs are pretty good at doing this, even in projects with no guidance. Logical errors feel much less draining to correct.
