    This may be reason enough for me to cancel. I don’t even bother using their Opus model because it exhausts usage so fast.

    It’s insane to me how much work I can get done with my ChatGPT plus subscription without ever hitting a limit. I’ve been paying for Claude since the beginning but if they keep tightening limits like this the product will be useless for doing real work.

    So after a time limited off peak double usage promotion, they impose permanent penalties on peak usage?

    I subscribed only a week ago and I have to say Opus is incredibly good. I'm kinda regretting it now though. This just isn't a good look.

    This is a bit wild.
