OpenAI's Thomas Sottiaux (opening with Rickroll lyrics) officially announced a global reset of usage for all paid subscriptions, letting users who burned through their limits — including those who spent it all doing fun 3D modeling in Blender with Astra — keep enjoying the model. The reset lands around 6pm PST today.
This directly answers the flood of weekend complaints from users exhausting their Astra quotas.
