What readers get before hitting ChatGPT and Codex limits

Most providers do not publish exact allowances. Readers tell Kingy which limit they hit, roughly how much they had used and when it reset. Once 5 different readers report the same plan and limit, Kingy shows the typical (median) value. These are unverified reports, not official figures: workload, model and account all change the result.
