Users reported Claude Pro subscription limits being exhausted within minutes of use, sometimes after just a few prompts, coinciding with the Computer Use research preview launch. The complaints specifically mention the issue worsening during the 2x off-peak promotion period, suggesting the Computer Use feature is driving significantly higher token consumption per session than typical chat or code interactions. The pattern mirrors previous capacity crunches at capability launches.
