MarcJSchmidt · x · 2026-10-01
Developer MarcJSchmidt says he received an email from OpenAI indicating his $200/month subscription now comes with half the tokens—"basically doubling prices just like that"—and asks whether he's reading it right. First-hand report from a paying user; pending wider confirmation and official explanation, but if accurate the effective price change is significant for Pro subscribers.
