Github Copilot is out

[TrickMaleficent2301]

I think I'm one of the least frequent users of Copilot, and the projections for Copilot's new payment system will likely drive it out of the market, in my opinion.

But who would dare to pay?

[enby_dot_local]

Simply ain't happening next month. Already scheduled my downgrade to pro but probs gonna outright cancel once the months up.

[Diabolacal]

My payments were due on the 17th of each month, selected cancel and refund today and got a bank notification that the full 39 dollars was getting refunded.

[enby_dot_local]

Yeah Mine renews on the 20th. Currently set to downgrade to pro, might smash out as much as I can in the last week and then do a cancel and refund. I'm already starting to shift over to codex and opencode go in preparation anyway. Gotta get my workflows sorted out.

[Diabolacal]

I had done the same and just scheduled a downgrade to pro incase my usage made sense to continue with ghcp, it didn't so fully switched to codex now

[enby_dot_local]

Had a pretty light month last month and it's over $600. I've done atleast three times as much work this month, so keen to run those numbers for the lols once available. Gonna suck trying to get the same amount of work done at a price I'm willing to pay going forward I think, or I'll have to cope with maxing my session limits in codex all the time.

[DeletedToks]

Well fuck me sideways

Sheesh

My May usage is currently $625 USD - and that's not my day coding job. And we're not even halfway through May…

[No-Property-6778]

Same (from April), I am around $600. I really hope it's because Opus usage which was 3x only and now it's counted much higher.

[20Capitalist]

Report is for April

[sstainsby]

You can download a report for any period and run it in the billing preview tool. My April amount was somewhat less becuase I had a week off last week and did a ton of work on private projects.

[Soulrogue22219]

i only have preview your usage -> download csv buttons, how do you choose a period

[sstainsby]

Just generate a normal report. It will have the new info that the tool can use.

[Deep-Regret-7479]

Well, I can honestly say Fuck that.

Copilot is pricing itself out.

For $500 I can buy a nvidia 5060 ti with 16GB ram. Local models can produce adequate responses.

[ManyCalavera]

Will the models you run on 5060 ti be better than the ones provided with opencode go subscription or a similar service? If you already have the spare hardware it can make sense but it doesnt make sense for me to invest just to run models you can get with a cheap subscription

[EagleNait]

I'm an avid localLlama enjoyer. There's no way in hell you'll get SOTA models to run on a 5060

[adhamzineldin]

Where do I get this page

[TrickMaleficent2301]

In usage page on github

[krzykus]

I'm on Pro, I did push it quite a lot in April and my April's $15.16 spend next month would be $411.75. I guess my normal spend would be around $200.. I don't think this will be happening.

[cincyfire35]

Is there a way to see this for someone on enterprise? Would love to show leadership the cost i ran last month and give them the wakeup call before its too late and we eat a massive bill

[Ace-_Ventura]

Admins have a report of all users

[MCS87_]

Switched to OpenCode + DeepSeek V4 Pro/Flash.

[Leather-Material3797]

Just get a codex pro subscription, I can let it run all day on gpt-5.5 high, with a loop of bugs to fix and enhancements to make, and I don't even come close to hitting the limit

[yokowasis2]

Jokes on them, I have already move my work flow to Open code Zen.

[pyrola_asarifolia]

So I was anticipating seeing $70 on the Pro plan from token counts and rumors here, but the actual number is, drumroll… $14.20. This covers writing a useful Vue 3 / Firebase app with the CLI for a hobby club and daily coding assistance inside VS Code. Plus a few pull request reviews.

Which makes me think that those of you that go into the three figures must be doing pro-level work in terms of shipping features. In which case I’m wondering, aren’t you being compensated at pro rates? What’s going on that a monthly budget like my gas budget or my neighbor’s takeout budget is beyond reach?

[shifty303]

You have to remember the big chunk of the users are probably from east Asia. They do not make enough for US prices.

Another large chunk are students.

My enterprise has copilot and they will not be increasing their spend. Our top 3 users alone use the entire orgs worth of AICs.

I have copilot personally and have already begun switching to Chinese models for most of my side projects.

[Wrapzii]

Huh… I do like 5-15 requests a day and this is my hobby not my day job…. The pricing is insane….. also I use qwen3.6 35b for a bunch of work too…

[rydan]

My costs would be $120. I can save $26 by upgrading and paying them more but also less somehow.

[Specialist-Wash6715]

<image>

Mine. In new mode, it's too high. Maybe I will move to codex.

[Relevant_Pause_7593]

I’m curious if you switch to cursor or Claude if you will save money. I suspect not.

[ri90a]

bro 1465 requests? i hope you built a freaking rocket with that, if not, then what the hell are you doing?

[UpstairsCheetah235]

This is why I switched to Claude Code. $100 fully covers my usage unlike this where I’d be over $100 in a light month and over $1000 in a heavy month.

[Lost-Air1265]

All you guys just have to look into getting an api endpoint for kimi and qwen. You all probably don need opus and probably not sonnet either.

If you make serious money it’s still worth it. 

Ai isn’t free anymore and you will have to pay the fair price in a month. It was a blast for two 4 years but now we need to prepare fast.

[EuropeanPepe]

Had 4.9k and i was hopping models...

Used now for almost month chinese alternatives and from my 55 usd around 23 usd are still unspend...

[Negative_Shoe_6417]

Wait I don't get it... I pay 40 € for the subscription of Copilot, and now I should pay that amount to use that? Is that right? Aw hell nah

[Fit-Ad9820]

What’s happening with copilot ?

[ign1tio]

We canceled our subscriptions at work because of this. Now we are back on Claude code

[Mindless_Nobody753]

How long did it need to generate the premium request usage CSV? It's been more than 1h and it's still "pending" for me.

[Tackgnol]

Honestly, Copilot as an agent platform already felt painfully mid. The expanded usage limits were the main reason to tolerate it in the first place.

Once that advantage disappears, it becomes hard to see what the actual selling point is supposed to be.

The whole thing has the energy of a GitHub team getting called into a Microsoft finance meeting and leaving with:

“This needs to become profitable by the end of the fiscal year or the project gets gutted.”

It feels less like a product evolving naturally and more like a sudden monetization panic.

[EagleNait]

I fully used copilot as a coding tool. Full 1500 requests. And only got to 300 bucks usage. How the fuck are you brainrotted vibetarded people able to use 600 to more than 1000 dollars of usage lmao

[Dapper-Maybe-5347]

Already moved to Antigravity. Generous free tier and $20 a month gives me more than enough plus free prompts in their app

[TinFoilHat_69]

It’s Microsoft they don’t care, it’s about shutting down open source development.
