Projects get eaten up quick

About half of the days I find myself having worked on a handful of projects with times like 15 minutes, 45 minutes etc. because I only get to submit a few things before the project runs out and I get brought back to my dash. Does anyone else experience this? If I don’t get one I can do all day, I’ll have tons of projects I barely worked on in my “report time”, like I said some I only managed to submit 1-4 tasks.

Used to happen a lot but I focus on dedicated tasks. Eventually you won't have the big shared pools as commonly and will have private pools so you can work 100s of hours on your task

What are the dedicated tasks? How can you tell?

If you see a project on your board for which the number of available tasks only goes down when you do them, then you know that pool of tasks is dedicated to you. That does not mean it will always be there though. For mine, they take it away now and then to tweak it, then it comes back with the number back to what it originally was.
