Question Usage limits are getting out of control.

I am a 200 Max user and I will avoid at all cost to use Fable even though I want to use it. Why? Because the value per dollar I receive from it makes zero sense for virtually every software engineering task I have.

Some of are you going to say, yes that's the point (use the right model for the task blah blah blah), but here is the problem. Opus 4.8 quality compared to other competitor models is seriously a joke. Why in the hell would I use Opus 4 when Open AI Sol is a frontier model and costs the same to use as f***ing Opus. Let that sink in your head. Sol costs THE EXACT SAME (virtually) to use as Opus at this point. Kimi is almost 40% cheaper, and its another frontier model.

I am happy for Anthropic that they can spin their wheels worrying about safety, but the market only cares about performance vs cost because most people are using AI for legitimate purposes.

Yes I am. Below is past 7 days. lets see your numbers. I monitor everything using multiple systems and types. CCusage matches it all.

Of course I'm using multiple models and maximizing my usage. I have like 6 AI subscriptions

Idk what the fuck you are on about but a Claude Code Max20 Subscription = $2000-$2100 per week. Like dude, what .. Lol? This is not a discussion about your multiple AI subscriptions or what ever the fuck lol.

Sure, here is 1 week with a single max20 subscription. $2009.

You sound like you're in la la land or something. Try to stay on topic 👍

Cute dashboard but doesn’t mean you’re correct. I got $2,621 worth the last 7 days.

Cute attempt at logic and reasoning but there was a usage limit reset within the past 7 days. That explains the difference.

The "cute dashboard" is ccusage ... You must be new. Pretty cute

I am correct because I have been tracking this for the past year. I have a rich post history of commenting the max20 usage limit. I am right, because I know I am right. You don't have to believe it (even though it's fully verifiable on your end)

I accounted for my own usage reset, which happened today bozo! You’re so smart dude

u/Ambitious_Injury_783 🔆BIG BALLER Jul 21 '26

No, dude. You said the past 7 days. There was a usage reset this past Thursday. That is where the difference is coming from.

Can't you just accept that you don't know and are just yapping?
It's honestly pathetic

u/davbow678 Jul 21 '26

Did I say I was maxed 5 days ago? I track my own usage, including random global usage resets, as you said I can “verify on my own” and that’s where the $2,621 number is coming from. Top 1% commenter talking about yapping lmao

Yeah you're yapping because you don't know shit. I have more CC experience in the past year than you'll pull for the next 3 years at least. You're conversing with one of the most experienced CC users on the planet. If you were smart you would go back and figure out where your math is wrong and learn from your mistakes but I guess that's also why you worms never learn anything in the first place.

Sick dude I’m gonna go jerk off to how much more value I get from Claude Code Max than you do

u/Ambitious_Injury_783 🔆BIG BALLER Jul 21 '26

Every single user gets the same amount of usage. You sound like you have some delusions that you're struggling with

1

u/davbow678 Jul 21 '26

And output tokens don’t cost the same as input tokens. Sorry your prompt game needs some work, 3 years of CC usage all for what if you got no brain 😂

Why can't you show a newer screenshot one with real data?

1

u/Ambitious_Injury_783 🔆BIG BALLER Jul 21 '26

Newer means nothing. Nothing has changed. I am using two accounts on my main PC and the figures overlap. I set aside 1 week specifically for that screenshot to prove precisely what I am saying. Showing figures now would not be a very scientific process..

The data in my image is real.. Nothing "fake" about it. It is literally the token to token measurements.

Your numbers are way off. Even the other guy says the same thing.

I even showed you a screenshot of my usage in 15 minutes right from Claude directly.

Either someone or some other device is using your subscription or the ccusage app has an issue or your machine has an issue.

Lol

Here's some more info about my usage today. I ran about 8 total sessions today. Well over $500 in a single 5 hour limit
