I'm finishing my annual paid Pro Gemini plan, so I'm on the free plan for Claude and I asked one (1) single question, which admittedly was about a research plan, using the Sonnet 4.6 Extended thinking model and instantly hit my limit until 2 PM (it was around 8 or 9 AM).

Just a shockingly constrained service tier right now.

When I got my Google AI Ultra, I could run it morning to evening at opus 4.6. One month later I started hitting 5h limits when I was nearing my 5h window. 2 weeks after I hit my 5h limit 30 min into the morning. Cancelled my sub even quicker.
Free is free. Want more, fork over money.
They are saying even for free it is very constrained. This isn’t productive.
Yes, exactly my point.
I mean, even the paid tier where you fork over money is constrained, too!
