- Problem
I have 18% weekly usage left on the $100 plan and I haven't used codex at all. These reset are a band aid on a gaping wound. Complete trash.

- Problem
honestly with these resets, its hard to plan on what to do with codex (PRO acc.). And I feel like not liking it. the resets came so suddenly when my usage was still at 95% (like 3-4 days until wkly reset) and extends my wait time for 7 days.

All because of barrage of resets I can't unsubscribe from Codex 😭

- Problem
feels like I'm better off not even using codex while this challenge continues because I'm only getting like 20-30% resets because of how frequent they are. fuck me for being efficient and smart with my usage...

Most people are stuck on codex because of resets You're the only reason I haven't switched yet

I'm torn, I have wondered why Claude is different than Codex in this regard. TBH, I'd rather it be more like Claude. When I'm about to be toast for a few days in Codex that doesn't sit well. If I have a couple hours left, then another limit is reset, I can evaluate and adjust.

This sloppy resets policy eventually made me switch to Claude...

Had this too? Say what happened.
JEV reads your words as you type and shows which theme they belong to. It may place them in another theme if that fits better.

“Shipped” means an announcement was linked to the theme by AI, not that the problem is fixed for everyone. “Not addressed yet” means no recorded announcement was linked; it is not proof that nothing changed.
