In a post dated August 21, 2026, @thsottiaux announced that Codex had reached 20 million active users during the week. To mark the milestone, every Codex and ChatGPT Work user would receive a banked reset that could be used at their own leisure.
A banked reset for users
The reset is intended to give users an additional allowance without requiring them to use it immediately. The announcement did not provide further details about the reset, but confirmed that it would be credited during the day and could be saved for later use.
Usage-limit investigation continues
The post also addressed concerns about usage limits draining faster than expected. It said that nothing abnormal had been detected so far, while confirming that an investigation remains ongoing. The author said an update would be shared if the investigation identifies an issue.
The announcement also indicated that more news would follow later, though no details were provided.
