ChatGPT user hits conversation length limit on 9-month chat full of personal memories

A Reddit user's 9–10 month-old ChatGPT conversation hit the "maximum length for this conversation" error for the first time, with ChatGPT telling them to start a new chat. The thread served as a personal diary/archive with months of context. When they send messages, replies appear then vanish or get replaced on the next turn — unclear whether messages are deleted or it's a UI/context issue. The post highlights the product limits heavy users face when treating ChatGPT as a long-term memory store.
