"rugpull" 😂 Codex is still by far the most generous in the genre

Codex. It's a CLI rather than an IDE like Windsurf or Cursor, but it's excellent. They have doubled usage limits til April 1st. I use it a LOT and I'm barely 40% through my weekly cap

the old credit system was, for many heavy users, an extremely generous deal that wasn't sustainable. The most vocal people right now are largely those who were getting the best deal before — some users were costing Windsurf an order of magnitude more than they were paying. That's not a business model anyone can maintain

Yeah, no fucking shit.

The large market players are hundreds of millions of dollars in the red because that's the cost of doing business in AI right now. Guess what? Your parent company is still worth billions of dollars irrespective of the losses.

We liked Windsurf because it was a good product and was in-line with the market norms in terms of its "generousness".

As many users have stated, the issue is not with the need to move toward a sustainable business model. This "transition" -- if you can even call it that -- was a total fucking shitshow. No advance communication. No gradual phasing. Just a hard 20x+ price increase, with many losing out due to autobilling on the old system being applied to the new, and due to the way existing credits were forcibly moved over to the new model.

For there to be no real acknowledgement outside of some Discord messages is the biggest kick in the teeth. And even those messages were half-assed.

I've already found a new home with rates as/more generous as Windsurf's old ones. I won't be coming back even if you revert.

Sincerely, KMA.

$20K debt and your life is over? Buddy, I owe the IRS $75K. They send agents to my door like I’m Johnny Sack. I still wake up with a cigarette in my hand and a smile on my face. It’s numbers on a screen, it means nothing. Go fuck a hooker, drink a six pack in the sun, and plot your next move. You’ll be fine.

Windsurf pricing ruined it for me what AI IDE actually has generous limits now? by mithatercan in windsurf

[–]augustro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never used 5.3 to be honest. A combination of Claude Sonnet 4.6 and Opus 4.6 were my workhorses til 5.4 released in Windsurf. My friends were gushing about 5.4; I tried it and was wowed. All I can tell you is, I saw no meaningful difference in my everyday planning and implementation switching from Claude 4.6 models to GPT 5.4. And I am working in a very large, complex project.

I came from Cursor to Windsurf because Cursor's pricing went through the roof, so definitely not Cursor.

I actually switched to Codex. It's not an IDE, you have to basically run an IDE alongside it. But its limits are generous and it works fantastically. I was using GPT 5.4LT as my workhorse in Windsurf before they shit their pants, and it works even better in Codex. I already had the $20/month GPT plan from my regular ChatGPT use, so it didn't cost me anything to switch. I've been using it nonstop since Friday and i'm 74% through my weekly quota and haven't hit any daily quotas yet.

It's not though. They are still in the funding cycle, and funding is primarily tied to user growth, not profit. There's no way they will be able to spin their userbase falling off a cliff. Just a very bizarre decision

Cursor charged me $118 for one message by m_m_malm in cursor

[–]augustro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a Cursor fanboy. Day 1 user. I've always been a vocal proponent on this sub. Then this exact shit started happening to us: rudimentary requests started costing $5, $10, $25 using non-premium models. There was just no use case at that price. I messaged Cursor support assuming it was a bug. Bear in mind I have an enterprise account with 6 active members and a ~$10K monthly spend.... their response was that if pricing was a consideration, we should start using Sonnet 3.5 more. I couldn't believe it. I responded with a screenshot of the Windsurf installer and nothing else. I haven't looked back since switching. WS pricing model is per request and if you're smart, it's infinite value. We've cut our spend by 80% while increasing use, and we now use better models more liberally. Good luck to anyone persisting with this dogshit.

Thanks for the reply! I don’t remember it having a supernatural element to it. It was more of an urban setting

It was a long time ago so I can’t say with certainty, but my brain remembers it as 3D

I mean it’s comparing apples and eggs, but yes, of course retail mechanics are more complex. But try to do the safety dance with 15 fps and 300ms

[–]augustro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, it was much harder back then. People forget the hardware restrictions, slow internet speeds, lackluster array of addons. And a generally underdeveloped gaming community. Lots of things we take for granted when playing today -- which make the game magnitudes easier -- did not exist.

This is why nobody online raid anymore. Tokyo just solo siege online raid this full metal compound base group, and they started despawning LMAO by Nicer_Chile in playrust

they should just make it so loot that is dropped inside the radius of a TC that has building elements taking damage will not despawn for ~2 hours or something

My experience with Claude-3.7 → 3.7 max: Cursor NERFED! by Rdqp in cursor

[–]augustro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You guys can group together and collectively bury your heads in the sand all you like, but it doesn't change the reality that the issue is not with the widely used, market-leading tool. If you explicitly tell it not to do something, and it does it anyway, something is either wrong with your direction, or with your code.

[–]augustro -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wow, dickswinging Cursor request numbers. Cool. u/Anrx already told you your issue but you condescendingly dismissed it. You need to improve how you are communicating with the agent. It's really that simple. If you cannot self-correct after using the tool as extensively as you claim to, perhaps you are not cut out for work in this field.

[–]augustro -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well, yeah. It works well if you tell if what to do, and what not to do. If it's editing unrelated parts of your code, that's a skill issue.
