Arbitrary usage resets resulting in an overall loss of tokens. #16785

Early adopter and long-time Pro subscriber here.

While I understand that you may be trying to help people who are not carefully managing their token consumption, for those of us who are very aware of it and ration our usage throughout the week, these arbitrary resets derail that planning and sometimes result in overall loss of tokens.

For example, last week, I had been very conscious of my usage at the beginning of the week because I had deadlines coming up and work that needed to be done towards the end of the week. I wanted to make sure I had enough credits available to use more heavily when needed, so with 3-4 days left in the week, I had intentionally kept around 70% of my weekly tokens available, which would have allowed me to make serious progress.

Instead, the limits were reset. Because I now have uncertainty about what my workload may look like in the remaining days of this week, I cannot afford to consume tokens heavily right now without risking running out before the week finishes, even if I deliberately used fewer credits in the days before the reset to ensure I had the bandwidth for that push.

So while I do appreciate that you are trying to be helpful, please make sure that this does not negatively impact those of us who are planning our token usage properly. Perhaps the reset should not be global, but only apply to those who would benefit from it.

Thank you.
