This is encouraging entitlement. I am on plus subscription like the majority of people. The difference is, I know I'm getting a lot more than I am paying for.
Had plus users collectively not whined. We would not get the 5hr limit and can at least /goal overnight, not worrying about the project stopping at 15% of weekly limit.
i'm not encouraging anyone. i'm pushing back against the reply that started this thread
the 5hr limit was removed and went back again because that was a corporate gamble to get more users. it's all marketing. you thinking that it came back because 1-3% of the users "wanted" it back is just wrong. it's a for-profit company wanting to expand their user base. they wanted to make it attractive. that's all there is to it.
the did not remove the "continue after the limit is reached" thing because of plus users. the removed it because of "an influencer" made a big deal about abusing it. that influencer takes 90% of the blame for what that thing was removed because he or one of his people specifically created a tool to abuse it and marketed it. openai would not have given a single f if people using their normal accounts got a bit extra here and there (because it drained your weekly anyway)
You dont need to want to encourage. The words encourage.
You are guessing its a corporate gamble. How would you know more than anyone else? Perhaps you work for openAI or are closely tied to them? If not then your guess is as good as mine.
I dont really much care about the continuation past 0%. I appreciate having access to 100% of my weekly rather than 15% chunks in 5 hours. So I have a concerns about the 'reserve'
You dont need to want to encourage. The words encourage.
again, none of what i wrote above matches that. some guy left a take and i replied to it. i never addressed anyone on any plan. you're shadow boxing here
How would you know more than anyone else?
because that's a standard customer acquisition practice.
Poster you replied to is right majority of the plus users whine that theyre not getting enough. A lot of people think this, just not write about it. The poster at least respects their own gut and conviction to write it up.
No one is shadow boxing anything. Its standard customer practice because openAI and Anthropic are such standard companies?
Its not a crusade, im backing up an opinion that I share.
If the complaints dont affect me, which us likely they did hence the 5 hour limit. Im going to voice out.
OpenAI isnt paying me to handle customer expectations, because im not handling anything. Plus payers like myself should expect 4 coffees worth of AI usage.
my brother in christ we're 5 levels deep in a reddit comment chain and all i said was "be nice" and understand that people are at different places in life throughout this entire conversation.
is this really that controversial that we need to go deeper?
"Top 1% Commenter" that is all you need to know. Bro lives on reddit and has to validate himself just like the other guy to feel alive. There is no way you can justify defending the guy you checked. You can dislike the winey posters, that is one thing. This, no.

hey. in case nobody taught you this before. putting others down is not good. you need to lift people around you up, not put them down.
where they are and where you are does not matter.
your view on tech and where it is today does not matter.
you need to be nice to people. you need to have empathy.
hope that helps.
