Copilot in GitHub

Body

Hello,

I would like to share feedback about the new usage-based billing system for GitHub Copilot.

As an individual user, the new model feels unclear and frustrating. When paying for a subscription, I expect to be able to use the product with confidence, without constantly worrying about hidden limits, premium requests, token usage, or unexpected restrictions.

The current system gives the impression that the subscription is no longer a real fixed plan, but only an entry point before being pushed toward additional costs.

For casual and honest users who do not abuse the service, this feels unfair. It also makes Copilot harder to trust as a daily development tool.

I think GitHub should offer a clearer fixed-price option with simple limits, or at least better transparency directly inside the product before users hit a limit.

Thank you.
