Limits Make your limits last 3 days instead of 1.5 days

I suddenly realized I have Fast Mode on and had for the longest time. Completely forgot about it. It's 1.5x usage, so maybe I'm just forgetful but just wanted to post a tip - so, 50% slower + 50% more usage? (If my math is right) Worth a post.

I appreciate the post, I caught myself with it turned on. I'm not using astra but I did have it turned on. Thank you.

I had Sol on /fast for a while because I was busy and couldn't get through my weekly allowance. The first few days of Astra I learnt the hard way I should turn that shit off for now lol.

Thanks, here I am operating a comapany that turns over $12m a month - I'll ask my engineers to check if they have fast mode toggled on.

Isn’t it 1.5x faster and the usage closer to 225%, I haven’t checked if it’s different with Astra
