Cursor IDE usage percentage drops significantly after limits doubled

Users of the Cursor IDE have reported a significant decrease in their usage percentage, with one user noting a drop from 99% to 67% within a two-week period. This change appears to be related to Cursor doubling its usage limits, which consequently reduced the displayed consumption percentage for users on the Pro+ plan. The adjustment has led to speculation about whether this is a bug or an intended change in how usage is tracked. AI

IMPACT Indicates a potential shift in how AI-powered IDE usage is metered, which could affect user perception and adoption.

RANK_REASON User-reported change in product usage tracking, not a new product release or major company announcement.
