Problem
Tbh I have this problem with 6.1 Sol. Then when I use /goal it easily eats several 5h limit blocks. There's no in-between

Problem
Why does 6.1 Sol medium and high still eat usage up so quick?

Problem
i just hit 5h limits after using gpt-6.1-sol 10 minutes 😇

Problem
Okay wait I just realized I’m on the $100 plan and I have only been using 6.1 sol, I used Astra once and my plain drain in 2 days?????

Problem
How... in 5 hours i lost all my usage to 6.1 sol... 100$ plan... what's happening ?

Problem
Day 16/ we have nerfed everyone’s usage and on the grandathered pro 20x you get 7 hours of sol 6.1 usage before usage is depleted 🤣🤣🤣

Problem
Affected . My sol 6.1 drained only after 5 prompts

@lasaklex on X ↗ · 20 Oct 2026
Problem
Even 6.1 Sol (which used to feel like it lasted forever) now does not last 2 hours. Wtf is happening with usage limits? Inconsistent resets do not fix this.

Problem
The limit consumption on Sol 6.1/High is terrible at this moment! What is going on!

@sayedkali on X ↗ · 17 Oct 2026
Problem
Is it just me, or has the GPT-6.1 Sol usage limit gotten significantly lower recently?
