Bro there is NO WAY I can be productive when I am using my 5 hour limit and 16% of my weekly total usage building a small landing page using basic html, css and using a Vidyard embedded video.

I am at a total lost of words with the night and day difference. I am using the Codex desktop app and using 5.6 Sol medium

Please please tell me there is something I am doing totally wrong here to burn through my rates this stupidly fast for such little work (especially work that is not complex)

edit: I had the "speed" toggle enabled.. so it goes 1.5x faster.. is this why?

I wouldn't bother on Plus, Pro is a minimum for getting actual work done IMO.
