Dev says he'd pay $500/month for an AI plan with weekly quota generous enough
CtrlAltDwayne · x · 2026-09-17
A developer argues that if an AI subscription's usage limits were generous enough to last an entire week of heavy use, he'd gladly pay $500 a month — noting a talented dev can easily earn that back, and that he already spends over $500/month across AI subscriptions.
Responding to community fears that $500-tier plans are coming, the thread highlights a real demand signal: heavy users find current quotas too tight, and many would trade a higher price for much larger limits.
