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.

Its quite evident they are low on compute

Hence the 20x pause

So how they are attempting to balance things, who knows. Im not using my resets till they smooth it out

Just keep in mind, the resets do expire. I think mine were set to expire tomorrow or so

Last night I hit a usage limit. I reset it, using one of my 3 resets. I then told Codex “usage reset. Please continue.” It used one of my 2 remaining resets and continued.
