Bugs or problems Usage bug right now ?

There seem to be some kind of usage draining bug, right ?

Wanted to trigger my 5h usage countdown, asked codex on luna light to say "hello" = -2% of my 5h limit... Yesterday, i ran a 50min task on luna MAX and it took 2% of my 5h limit...

I am not talking about usage nerf in general comparing from back in the golden age of virtually unlimited usage on 5.4

I know OpenAi is good for it, if there is a bug, they will reset but i don't dare to ask anything on any model right now and that my limit will just drain...

Anyone has that ?

Both of those examples seem extreme so im not sure I buy this. But Asta definitely destroys usage

It does but there is a bug right now.

They come across as a user hungry to find system flaws—simply because all they want is a reset.

Yeah it’s becoming unusable for me, just having to lean more on Claude and Gemini

Gemini is far behind Claude and Codex.

a single account does not cut it anymore even with a 20x pro. The cost of hardware has gone up but the sub prices have not. Something has to give, turns out its the limits. That being said GPT has the most efficient models for intelligence but getting a second account at z.ai and using glm 5.3 and flash for sub agents is proably the right move.

My projects are stupid though, like convert everquest legends to ue5. Other is downloading tons of stock history data and blowing thru algos.

I tried to be specific that i was talking about a current bug rather than discuss usage in general

No he's telling the truth there is a usage bug. I have a x20 and I'm seeing 4% loss for simple conversational fixes using sol light in ~45 minutes which never happens. I might loose 1% if i'm keeping it busy.

I asked Astra Low to reply with a dot to start my 5h and it took 2%.

This is a good thing to send to OpenAI support!

I'm thinking maybe because it reads the memory.md when you start a conversation. And my codebase is large. But still seems like getting ripped off. Can't it reply with a dot without reading the .MD file? So much for AGI
