  1. 💥 Cursor’s latest move to “set less money on fire” is not vibing with devs. 🧯 The AI coding startup changed its pricing model, and chaos followed:
    💸 One user hit with $71 in a single day under the new “Pro” tier
    🤖 Support bots couldn’t help telling vibe coders to learn how to code. 🤣
    ⏳ Refunds? Still pending
    💼 A new $200/month Ultra plan drops

    Developers feel burned, not just by unexpected charges, but by the perception that startups are offloading infra costs onto users with minimal transparency.
    Are AI-powered dev tools becoming too expensive to trust?
