“Codex Rate Limit 2 weeks” - I just noticed. Is there some info on this ? How does this effect the limits in detail ?

@Sasha123 from my understanding its a new policy, its not a bug, its working as intended. However, as soon as these changes gets rolled out to all other users, there will be no users left as its that bad, no one will be paying for the service.

That doesn’t change what I’ve said. I have never even reached 70% of my limit despite coding every day (despite a small period OpenAI claimed a bug was draining rate limits) It was inevitable that these rate limits would be tightened to reflect the actual cost of service.

The main point is that people affected by it shouldn’t confuse it with something that was related to the issues in this thread that have been raised. We humans, tend to quickly assoicate such patterns too quickly.

Yeah, it turns out are rates were reset because the codex reached a milestone of 3 million users, and will reset every million users until 10 million users, if I remember the press release I read at 4am today.
