A Claude Pro user says usage limits appear to have gotten much tighter after Opus 5 launched.
- They report hitting the 5-hour session limit much faster than before.
- After returning 7 hours later, a few minutes of Opus 4.8 usage already showed 100% session usage.
- Their weekly usage had also reached 42%, prompting concern that limits changed after the new model release.
- The attached screenshot shows a plan page with the current session at 100% used and weekly usage at 42% used.
