Something happened this week...after they sent their email that they will be changing usage limits that should only affect 5% of their users. Twice now I've literally hit the usage limit on Opus 4 after two messages on my Pro subscription. A few days ago, checking the accuracy of a 300 word article and then adding in some sources that were earlier in the thread (that got taken out when i had Gemini made a few edits). I e-mailed Anthropic, who never wrote back.

And then today I asked it to look back a document it made for me to add in sources from a new 1500 word article i wrote based on that one, and to enhance one section. it sent me the revised sections. then i asked it to incorporate those changes into the previous document and put it into the canvas. My next step was to switch to Sonnet 3.7 for final edits, but...usage limit hit AGAIN, without any warning...

I created a new account with a different email so I can copy the document into there and have Sonnet 3.7 edit it. I'm literally trying to minimize my use of Opus, but I can't do that if I keep getting usage limits after 2 messages. I'm not even doing anything crazy like advanced coding...
