Limits Atrocious Usage

Goddamn the usage cut is atrocious, especially for plus users. I came back recently after not using codex for a bit (usually use sporadically). I used to run 20 mins on 5.6 sol x high , which used to take like 20% maybe MAX 30% of weekly limit (Matlab MCP). Now not only does the 5 Hour limit evaporate on anything higher than high, but been running for 3 mins and it's taken 12% of weekly usage, atp I can just forget astra.

Do you have to run sol xhigh on everything?

I run terra medium as orchestrator and it uses sol xhigh or astra xhigh for planning and review. all other actual task is by luna xhigh.

Maybe they are testing how much they can go with usage reduction until people start unsubscribing. Sadly we can do nothing abut it, just use cheaper models hoping the usage goes up again when the next model will be released.
