it happened again today after just 2 or 3 chats, same rate limit error with Gemini Pro, please check.

Same, no matter which model I use I'm getting rate limited errors after 3 prompts, very frustrating. I'm honestly surprised the Copilot devs haven't said anything to address the issue at least, there are many posts in here about this exact same issue but it's just been radio silence, pretty unacceptable for a paid product.

I have been using copilot pro (edu) for weeks without ever been limited. Sometimes used it for like 8 hours in agent mode on a single day. Now I do 3-4 simple agent prompts with barely any context and im limited. We can only hope that this is bugged and not intentional design.
