To be generous, let's call this an even $2 a minute. That's $160 an hour.

A highly competent mid-level software engineer comes in at around $100 an hour.

This was for a one-line fix that a junior on their first day could have done.

I'm seeing exaggerated charges like this more and more all the time. And I've been around long enough to remember when a job like this cost 10 cents at most.

They say the trick to boiling a frog alive is to slowly increase the temperature one degree at a time so they don't notice. This frog is starting to notice.

They keep this up and there's gonna be a lot of frogs leaping out of this water pretty soon.

I had over $100 dollars in cycles from the Bounties program. Before it was sunset on September 6th, 2025 (under 11 months ago), they said that those cycles will be converted to usage credits.

I have never seen those, and tried to get support, but it is locked behind a paywall. The only support I have access to is the AI bot Quinn, which is completely useless as it has no knowledge about the sunset. It notified me that credits expire in 12 months and I need a core subscription to use credits.

Please confirm if what it said was true, and confirm, preferably a staff, that if I buy a core subscription right now that I will receive my $100+ in credits usable for AI.

Hello! I noticed today the previous UI in Android is back and I don't want to get my hopes high too soon. Is this reversion temporary? If somebody from support could answer it would be amazing.

I actually signed up for Reddit just to ask this question. 😅 I've been reading discussions here for a while, but this is my first post, so go easy on me!

Since yesterday, I've noticed something strange with Replit.

My credits are draining incredibly fast, even though I'm using the same agent and the same type of tasks as before. It feels like they're disappearing after just a few prompts.

I'm not sure if this is a bug related to the recent update or if Replit has changed how credit usage is calculated.

Out of curiosity, I asked my girlfriend to create a brand-new account (she had never used Replit before). Surprisingly, her free credits were almost gone after only 3–4 prompts.

That makes me think this isn't related to whether the account is paid or free. It also doesn't seem to be location-specific—we tested from two different countries (Germany and the Netherlands) and saw the same behavior.

Has anyone else experienced this over the last couple of days, or is it just us?
