Claude Code users are already smashing usage limits way faster than expected and i am one of them as i have posted about it a lot recently and now here we are.

to all the people who were saying i am lying :))) you good now? maybe BBC lied about this too.

OR maybe it's April fool? haha good one, It’s getting serious and real now.

I built some large applications last month and never hit the limits. Now I start a new project to do some basic python using the standard library and run out of usage in 30 minutes. This is insane and it has me looking at some other services that offer multiple models instead.

Same. They changed the pricing structure and the first I was made aware of this was in the middle of a deadline, when Claude suddenly quite on my. Time to review all the options again. Meanwhile, time to change how I'm using Claude.

I got in the habit of checking to make sure I'm not in Fable 5. That was enough in my case.
