I just upgraded to the $100 a month 5x plan 5 minutes ago.

Starting in October with Vscode Copilot Chat it was $150, $200, $300, $400 per month with the same usage. I thought they were just charging more per request without warning. The last couple weeks it seemed that vscode copilot was just fucking up making useless calls.

Perhaps, it wasn't a dark malicious pattern but rather incompetence that was driving up the price.
