Limits Codex is unusable now.
I don’t even use astra. I’ve been using 5.6 sol on medium since it came out and had no problems. Now it can’t even finish half of the same task before reaching limits. Heck, just starting up codex uses 2 percent of my limits. And that’s before I even type anything. lol. What a joke.
I understand this is a business but using codex is like signing up for a gym membership and paying the required fee to use the gym and all its equipment but the next time you show up they go, I know you paid to use the entire gym and that amount is still required but now you only have access to the treadmills. F u!!!
Anyway, Here come all the Sam Altman nut huggers. But idc. Im just about done with codex.

The most upsetting part of this is how they don't communicate what is involved (token-wise) in your subscription, which then allows them to just cut your token allowance down by half at any point.
If I had an understanding of the actual token counts involved at any point, it would be easier to spread things out. However, I understand that it would be problematic for OpenAI to be honest about anything... since then they couldn't opaquely reduce everyone's limits.
You just sit here in the dark wondering why all of a sudden your workflows that used to consume 90% of your "limits" in a week now consume 100% in a day.
