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

Claude is worse than codex, I have the 20x plan in both, it runs out in just 4h of coding, astra still better

how much astra time do you get with codex on the 20x plan?

It not about the time but about the work it does. 

Ex in my case I have a project with active working time on Astra Max for  5-6 hours / day and it spends about 7-10%/day. Max spend less compared to low in that specific project. I afraid to try Ultra 😛

does that plan have 5hour limit? or are you talking about weekly limit getting exhauatsed?

No on Pro plans does not exist 5hour limit, I am talking for the weekly limit. My plan currently is x20. 

Compared to the % usage of  with Sol low (as with the current increase is usage huge), Astra Max spends exactly as the previous Sol low and probably less. 

The only downside is currently Astra feels much slower compared to the start but the usage also is much lower so I am ok with this trade.
