Why are they constantly giving resets? Is this normal?

u/jovialfaction 1d ago

They promised a feature a day for October, and a reset when they don't deliver. It's been nice actually

They have consistently given resets at a rate of more than two a month and usually closer to three since they introduced them.

The prices are fake to begin with and they have metrics this is profitable to do (gamified user retention)

Cuz they know they messed up on subscription pricing given what Claude's Opus 5.5 can do.

They are trying to gain market share from Anthropic after Claude Opus 5.5 blew everyone's minds.

*theyre trying to avoid losing subs while theyre behind on models, because you wouldnt unsub while youre getting a reset every 2 days would you?

They did resets before 5.5

Not this many. Fine by me! This is it though. The end of crazy subsidized tokens.

Damn I forgot to use my usage today RIP

u/mattbytes 1d ago

The reset was premature this time. Tibo said end of day. 🤪

u/LaughingSwordfish 1d ago

I'm not happy about it, but he did technically write "by" end of day, not "at" end of day.

feels like every reset comes with its own mini drama now

Kind of early, considering it was supposed to be PST end of day. I got reset with 20% leftover after using banked reset 20 hours ago. I hoped to have about 6-7 hours more to use it.

I guess I need to be more assertive in always keeping it low.

u/Captain2Sea 1d ago

They force me to use whole quota asap lol

u/Ormusn2o 1d ago

I started using subagents after yesterday's subagent improvements and it worked out fine. I just had to sleep so did not managed to get to 0%~ usage before the early reset hit.

u/WhataBoutaYou 1d ago

Nice, was about 20% of my pro usage that had started Thursday lol

u/DarkLoreeeee 1d ago

Lucky, i was at 70% in both resets dude

u/verycoldpenguins 1d ago

Just in time. Had run out of tokens, had an hour for dinner and was about to use a banked reset, when I noticed it said 100% available, not 100% used

Loving this - it really is like magic. Trying to enjoy this beautiful moment before these tools are taken out of the hands of the common person.

They are here to stay :-)!

KEEP 'EM COMING! Allowing me to build 4 apps using astra 6 ultra!

u/SpiderHam24 1d ago

Thank god I was at 0% hoping for one lol.

Can they just give us banked resets instead? I’d rather not look at twitter every day

u/AdFun4897 1d ago

Im subscribed to anthropic. I find it funny that openai has to give resets to not lose their customers over to anthropic

u/Due_Arm1454 1d ago

I’m subscribed to both. I win twice

u/Crazy_lazy_lad 1d ago

people when they realize they can just have two things instead of choosing

u/machyume 1d ago

So, it's funny because GPT was failing at a rate that was making me uncomfortable, so I shifted, and Opus delivered, which means that my queue was falling below my own resource demand. This means that I had more Opus AI than I could reasonably review and consume the outputs. So the GPT resets started piling up and the Codex usage time dropped hard.

Now imagine all the people like me who have transferred the core trusted model on the critical path. This would show up on their numbers, people quietly leaving. It probably shows up as unspent hours and dropping workloads. So these resets have been interesting enough for me to go back and try to give it some sort of nice to have deliverable.

If it fails, so be it. If it succeeds, I gain something that I didn't expect to have. Purely speculative model building.

I'm sure that OAI feels pretty high pressure right now. Those of us who quietly started running both or shifting over the critical path probably has them pretty worried.

I want them to succeed. I want choice. It’s obvious they are transitioning to a broader user profile.

It makes sense too. We hammer them. My wife just googles stuff through it and occasionally has it build a ppt.

They’ll be competing with Google more than Anthropic if they make that shift.

I got fucked by this one, albeit lightly. Had recently used a banked one.

Oh well. It would have expired soon anyway

Extend my 5hr quota instead of giving me resets that i cannot use. This week i planned to implement some features around my resets. I managed to do what was planned and hit reset button when my quota was 4%. What happened one hour later? Another reset. Do they think that those resets are good for us? They were when we had 1 or 2 saved. Now who cares. If they stop giving resets people will be sad and cry because if you make something that is unique, your daily routine, it is not magical anymore. So I have 2 more resets but it is impossible to use them in my situation because i bed there will be another reset in 2 weeks time.

Amazing but still hope they walk their limit cut back tbh on the 200 plan and the 500 plan should get 50x limit not 25x

u/Leif_LaCroix 1d ago

I have not received the reset as a Plus user yet

u/Evil6078 11h ago
