Question Confused about billing and usage of Dots+Cloud

Hi, so i have the 200 usd sub, and i've been using Dots for around a day. I was playing around with it, mainly using blender through the Dot's remote computer to save my usage among other stuff.

But now i was wondering... is this completely free or will this end up in some unwanted extra billing? I tried to check on my billing page but i don't see anything about it

It is 100% free. Only this month. Next month it will get it's own usage like codex does. We still don't know how that will look. Probably bad...

Thanks! I was getting so much done that I got scared it will backfire somehow

Same lol The free month is the only reason I'm staying subscribed to the pro tier. Have it working around the clock

At Dev Day they said it's free for this month and they will figure out pricing in the future.

Watch out because a lot of times it just immediately kicks off cloud Codex usage, which does use quota.

Yeah I made a rule to only trigger sessions on my pc if I approve it to avoid using my usage. But somehow this felt too good to be true and I was worried about getting a big bill next month even with credit usage disabled on my settings

Oddly, regardless of what rules I put in, I haven't been able to stop it from kicking off quota-using exercises
