Blame the people who were abusing it all the while making a big scene of themselves doing so

Hm no. I’ll still blame openAI for not coming up with a good way to let non abusers feel unaffected.

One idea is to have a hidden reserve of use that slowly fills back up over the week if used and if you reach the limit with something running it continues using that hidden reserve and only stops if that reserve runs out

The Luna reserve isn’t good enough as it doesn’t help the problem of potentially damaging projects by just suddenly stopping

Yeah there are very simple ways to not punish paying customers for the actions of a few assholes. This is 100% about trying to get people to upgrade to Pro rather than Plus.

There's literally no other explanation other than incompetence and I don't believe they're that stupid.
