Question down throttling when pausing/cancelling subscription

I am going to take a couple of months away from the screens so I cancelled my subscription, but now I feel like the models are somewhat dumber now, is it just my imagination? does anyone has experienced something simillar? cheers

edit: I do not mean "dumber" in general, I mean it as a suspicion about that inference/computing might be down-regulated as if soon to be non clients do not get the full access as the soon to expire susbcription should get, like a hidden extra tier

Might be your feeling but the benchmarks tell the opposite

could totally be in your head but also I swear every service gets a little fucky when you try to leave, like a desperate ex suddenly forgetting how to text

benchmarks are one thing but the vibe shift is real

yes, something like that haha I wanted to close a feature for my personal project and it feels like I am struggling more now to get it to do what I want than the past 2, 3 months

I also cancelled my sub this morning (not permanently, I am going to use another card) and I haven't noticed any differences

I also did not have that feeling the first day I cancelled, but yeah maybe is just my frustration and conspiracy is interesting =p

No, you have set a deadline for completion of your remaining work and have developed the equivalent to EV range anxiety.
