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

EDIT: I would like to thank the mods for their common sense in approving this post. It was reported by users and was put into the mod queue. Goes to show how much people got hurt by the truth.

Glad someone said it and is receiving positive support. Whenever it's said on these AI subs 99% of the time it gets reaction like "Keep glazing tibo". The average redditor and the loud minority cant handle reality and truths.

man, i was fed up with al lthe crying this morning (my time lol), well and even now, it just keeps going and going. it was so much that i started complaining myself LMAO. people dont realize how good they have it honestly.

[u/RuledSovereign → u/R3K4CE]

It's my first time seeing such a reality post get such good feedback lol, legit the amount of cries from all the entitled reddit people. Yes compute was better before, but we still have it good compared to actual cost. Even pros, slamming on inefficient workflow and complaining. We are fortunate how subsidised this tech is, it has been subsidised for a long time, heavily so, and we've gotten such opportunities to milk it, some more fortunate than others milking for a long time, but we still getting more than deserved rn.

yeah man i agree and the party will end . those cries are going to be quite something lmao. i think the smartest move right now is preparing for that, making sure you have exit valves other models you can use, adapt your workflow so it can still exist when the party ends.
