I think the $1500 max is a downer. Higher limit would be awesome.
If you are willing to spend a lot, the IT Miles might be better. That's an uncapped 3% on everything in the first year (but on the flip side, no 5/10% categories)
There's also Discover Deals. A shopping portal with great deals. Ongoing cashback offers from lots of retailers. No caps on those as far as I know. I have been using the 5% cashback on Walmart. That should be 10% on all online purchases first year without cap. Again I could be wrong but that's what it looks like to me.
I like the Discover It card fine...unfortunately Discover It does not like me enough to extend a 10k CL to me like all my other cards. I only use it for 5% catagories.
OP, you need to spend some time studying credit card rewards and get some perspective. The Discover IT first year offer ($600 cash back on $6000 of spending) that you call a "downer" is one of the best offers in the industry.

Good point. Will add that the US Bank Cash+ also has categories and they are capped per quarter at $2000. Seems the OP needs to look at the credit card landscape.

Yes, but there also differences. Cash+ allows you to stick with categories. With Discover (and Freedom etc) the issuer gets to choose the categories, so maxing out the $6000 can be hard. (As can finding good Cash+ categories!). And still a few uncapped ones, such as Chase Amazon: uncapped 5%.
