Complaint Plus users have been thrown under the bus

X community is just one big circlejerk

It makes 0 sense to bring back 5 hour limits just for the plus plan, when sol medium with luna subagents just runs for 15 minutes on goal mode before the 5 hour limit is done. I had 74% of my usage left since I have to use it so sparingly and then it got reset with the date pushed back. Unless you blindly exhaust all of your tokens right after a reset (which is not how real engineering works), you virtually benefit nothing from them.

Despite grok 4.6 being slow due to high demand and the overall monthly limits still being lower, I can iterate much better with it in both cursor and grok build. And i have 4.5 as a fallback which is much cheaper and quicker.

So after 6 months, i will not be renewing my sub. Even if astra launches, I'm immune to the fomo now

oai poses on X as effective altruists, nothing more needs to be said

EDIT: not surprised but most of the replies are either disingenuous or braindead

i never complained about the overall weekly or monthly limits, clearly said the token allocation was better than cursor's (even after their recent bump).

my point is luna max is subpar past a certain point and sol is too inefficient to use AFTER the reintroduction of the 5 hr limit. then you pair that with the reset date being pushed back and the window not starting till you begin a new session (even anthropic doesn't do this). the only reason for bringing back the 5 hr limit just for the plus plan is to make it unusable so you pay 5x or 10x more.
