Grok usage-limit 'rug pull' pushes users to Hermes; Nous founder teases desktop app revamp
Teknium · x · 2026-11-02
A conversation between Teknium (Nous Research founder) and a user reveals two things: Grok's bot tightened usage limits (a 'rug pull'), prompting users to consider fully switching to Hermes. Meanwhile the Hermes team has spent the past two weeks focused on the desktop app, with a full release expected this week bringing noticeably nicer UX, plus more design work coming. Teknium promised concrete export/import guidance for routines migration tonight.
