Make Your Voice Heard: Addressing the Recent Downgrade of Rate Limits on Pro Subscriptions

In recent days, a controversial change has emerged regarding rate limits for Pro subscription users, leaving many in the community feeling frustrated and unheard. Without any prior notice, Google has significantly reduced the rate limits associated with these subscriptions, and to date, there has been no official acknowledgement or explanation from the company.

This situation has sparked a multitude of discussions across various platforms, particularly in communities dedicated to AI like r/Bard and r/GeminiAI. Users are expressing their concerns, sharing experiences, and calling for action, and the response has been considerable. If you’re interested in the ongoing conversation, you can follow the threads which highlight the shared sentiments:

• Thread discussing initial reactions
• Additional responses from the community
• Discussion on the GeminiAI subreddit

Despite the vibrancy of these discussions on Reddit, we need to expand our outreach. It’s apparent that decision-makers may not be monitoring these threads as closely as we would hope. However, they are active on Twitter, and this presents an opportunity for us to raise our concerns directly.

To make your voice heard, consider tweeting at Aarush Selvan, the product manager for the Gemini app, here. It’s also important to involve Gemini and Google in our conversations by tagging their official accounts, along with others involved in this matter:
