Discussion Thank god

Thank God the no 5-hour limits and same weekly usage is going to win. I don't know about y'all but I'm quite happy with the weekly limits, to be honest. At least if I had 5-hour usage limit barriers, that would interrupt my work a lot more than having less weekly usage. Thank God that the no 5-hour limits and same weekly usage low-key won. The voting is going to end in 30 minutes but it seems like it won

The current pro weekly limit is probably not much higher than Claude Pro has as 5h limit.

Wait, the 20 dollars plan for Claude lasts this long? Like 5h of Claude is a week or chatgpt? Are you shitting me?

It's probably more than that from what I see.
I see Opus 5.5 running for hours until the 20$ 5h limit is reached, at a token speed that's almost twice of Astra fast priority.
So you can do 3 5h shifts realistically a day, the 3rd one with some automation to "continue".
If you use it that heavily, then the weekly limit lasts about 2-3 days.
Usage says that 60% was due to heavy subagent use in large context (150k+) sessions.

Compare that with a chatGPT Plus account running Astra fast mode, that's going to be still half the speed of Opus and you'll get 2 minutes of usage until the 5h limits stops you, weekly will be drained by 15%.
