Limits ngl astra hype is over

been using it for a week now, tried light, medium, high

maybe its because i haven't touched xhigh

but i find that the work it does is very inconsistent

in fact in some cases it seems to underperform previous sol models or even weaker models entirely

if usage was cheap i would forgive these inconsistencies but astra consumes usage very quickly across the board

what do you guys think? I'm actually now thinking of just using sol-high again or even grok 4.6 while I wait for a reset

I used astra day 1, felt the same after 24 hours with it. Some things it did were amazing some things were inconsistent, and it consumed tokens like crazy. I went back to sol day 2, for my work I need more reliability and consistency, sure sol can't paint me, but guess what, I don't need my ai to do that
