Not trying to start a panic thread, but something feels very off with Max 20x after the reset. I track my weekly usage with Tokscale, converted to API-equivalent spend. Before last week, even on weeks where I maxed out, it usually landed around $3.5k–$4k. Today after reset I’ve used about $450 API-equivalent and I’m already at 22% of my weekly limit. That puts the weekly cap at roughly $2k. Down from close to $4k. So basically a 50% cut. For context: during the last two weeks of the Opus 5.5 rollout, I was almost exclusively on Opus and barely touched Fable. Usage felt generous. This week after reset it dropped off a cliff. Same kind of work, way less headroom. Anyone else seeing the same thing? If you use Tokscale or track API-equivalent usage, post your before/after. I’m trying to figure out if this is account-specific, a silent change, A/B testing, or just me. TL;DR: Max 20x weekly cap looks like it went from ~$4k API-equivalent to ~$2k after reset. Anyone else? Edit: After digging through my local logs, I don’t think the limit was actually cut. It looks like cache reads started counting under the Opus 5.5 model ID (they were ~free before), combined with 5.5’s lower API pricing, which makes the API-equivalent $ look halved. Details and numbers in my comment below. Still interested in counter-examples. submitted by /u/Last_Lab_3627
