$200/month users blast OpenAI for halving Pro usage then spinning it as good news
Gullible-Ad3912 · reddit · 2026-10-01
A ChatGPT Pro subscriber says OpenAI quietly cut Pro plan usage by roughly half and then tried to frame the downgrade as a positive change. The poster calls this gaslighting: power users paying $200/month can do the math, and the company should simply be upfront that service is degraded.
The author mocks OpenAI's DevDay as a distraction that shipped an inferior model, and pleads for honest communication instead of corporate spin aimed at the platform's most loyal customers.
