Dev says $100-200 plans removed token limits; review cycles and human bandwidth are now the bottleneck

Indie developer @ezshine shares that after platforms' $100-200 premium plans, token usage is no longer his bottleneck while running two vibe-coding projects in parallel. What limits him now are platform review cycles and his own cognitive bandwidth — "my brain turns to mush." A sign that for individual developers, compute cost has stopped being the constraint; human attention is the new bottleneck.
