Re:GitHub Copilot is moving to usage-based billing by fortran77 on Monday April 27, 2026 @02:09PM (#47925136)
I'm not sure I understand this. All I know is now, I pay $39/month (actually less because I paid a year up front), use the agent, mostly on auto--and only choosing a model if it got stuck or in a loop--every day, and haven't hit any limits yet. It seemed to good to be true, after hearing others talk of $300/month bills. I guess it was.

you will pay 6fold at the very least. Your 300 messages became 50 or your 1500 became 250 per month. And you have session limits, daily weekly and monthly limits
