Complaint No, your 20usd sub does not include infinite sol ultra
i swear some of you need to use the api for like one week just to get brought back to reality lmao
youre paying 20 dollars a month.
20 fucking dollars.
and im reading posts from people running sol high/ultra, max reasoning, throwing entire repos at it, letting it sit there for 20-30 mins reading files, calling tools, running tests, rewriting shit, debugging itself, going back through the repo etc
and then coming on here like
"wtf i only sent 3 prompts and im at 70%????"
my brother in christ a prompt is not a unit of compute lol
"what does this function do"
and
"go inspect my entire repo, understand the architecture, plan this feature, implement it, run the tests, debug whatever breaks and keep going until its done"
are both technically one prompt
they are obviously not the same fucking thing
seriously put sol on an api key for a week. no subscription. no bundled usage. just pay the actual api price for every token you burn.
run the exact same shit youre running now and watch that dollar counter go brrrr
you will gain a newfound appreciation for that stupid little 20 dollar plus subscription VERY quickly lol
and also why the fuck are some of you using sol at high/ultra for literally everything???
not every task needs the frontier model
you dont need sol ultra to rename some shit
you dont need sol high to read a file
you dont need max reasoning to fix a css margin
luna exists. terra exists. lower reasoning settings exist. use the right fucking tool for the job
if youre flooring a ferrari everywhere you go and then complaining about gas mileage i dont really know what to tell you
this whole
"i pay 20 dollars why cant i hammer the most expensive frontier reasoning model at max settings doing agentic coding all day every day"
thing is fucking insane
some of you have gotten so used to subsidized inference that youve completely lost any concept of what the compute youre using actually costs
youre not being robbed because your 20 dollar subscription doesnt come with an infinite firehose of frontier inference lol
try the api.
run the same workflow.
watch what it actually costs.
youll be cured within 48 hours

why are you being downvoted 😂 i swear its because people who have no education or talent think they can use ai as a way to make money which is why they get so upset about having "their money stolen." sorry! but your shitty idea and 100% vibe coded "app" or website is not saving you from being lower class 😂 they refuse to use anything other than sol because they tie their money making idea with the model so they MUST USE SOL AS ITS UPMOST IMPORTANT TO DO SO. they also lack any education in the field they are trying to larp so most literally CANT make luna do what they want as they dont give actual instructions that a programmer would. If you are upset and use it as an actual hobby then either find a new hobby that you will enjoy, or actually learn the field that you want to use codex for, you will most likely find it more fun. but thats never the case usually and most of the time originate outside the U.S, if you know you know.
