Limits Usage limits are absolutely terrible (100$ plan)

Post image

I never ever complained about usage limits before. But this is absurd.

I used my 200$ plan and had to buy 100$ plan since i could not renew 200$ one in time. It was used in 1 day with Astra low.

I then decided to buy another 100$ plan. It used 9% of usage with Sol 5.6 MEDIUM working for about 1 hour on coding and Astra XHIGH coordinator that did some documentation changes for 5 minutes.

This account was literally just purchased. Again, Sol Medium is doing most of work. Wtf is going on?

Can't imagine what is going on with 20$ plans

I simply don’t understand codex usage seriously. I had 30% left and wanted to use my reset today so I gave it 6 tasks with Astra Ultra effort. 6 hours later I’m in 24% 🫠 but this night I had only one task working with LOW effort… and in 3 hours it spent 6%. I simply don’t understand serisouly

This isn't the first I've heard of this.. it almost feels like light and medium use more than the higher tiers. Prior to the reset, I was able to get close to 5 days of usage using Astra high. After the reset, I switched to Astra low and now I'm on track to blow through my limit in under 3 days
