$100 Codex plan hits 5% quota in a day of normal use, user complains

A Reddit user complains that OpenAI's $100/month Codex plan drops to 5% remaining quota within a day of regular usage, calling it "basically useless" for ordinary workloads.
The post criticizes opaque quota calculation and suggests that if OpenAI effectively wants $2,000 from heavy users, it should say so directly — a data point on the gap between high-tier pricing and real-world consumption.
