10 mins work = more than half of my weekly limit
Spent 10 minutes on Windsurf today.
Result:
- 100% daily credits gone
- 60% weekly spending limit gone
So mathematically I guess I’m allowed to work less than 20 mins per week now 💀
Good job.
The funniest part is that back then I couldn’t even finish spending all the credits I was granted for an entire month. That was perfectly fine because it meant I could actually rely on the tool whenever I needed it.
Now somehow we went from “more than enough monthly credits” to “carefully plan your prompts or you’re done for the week.”
I’ve been subscribed since the very beginning and even got the early bird pricing because I genuinely liked the product. But every few months it feels like the limits get tighter while the marketing gets bigger.
At this point I’m honestly confused what the actual difference is between Free and Pro anymore.
Pro users get:
“slightly longer before being rate limited”
And Free users get:
“5 mins instead of 20 mins?”
The old credit pool system was at least predictable. If I wanted to grind for a full day on a side project, I could. Now everything is daily/weekly throttles like I’m being put on AI probation.
Paying customers shouldn’t feel stressed opening the IDE.
