User claims OpenAI quietly cut usage to ~1/5 while Anthropic's Opus 5.5 went the opposite way
StewartalsopIII · x · 2026-09-30
Stewart Alsop III notes the two labs are moving in opposite directions on usage limits:
- OpenAI's "shrinkflation": he says he now gets barely 1/5th of the usage he did a month ago.
- Anthropic doing the opposite: Opus 5.5 appears to come with more generous limits, in his experience.
A short but pointed observation on the pricing/allowance changes that directly affect paying users.
