Our angle
There is no native 'mid-tier' plan (e.g., $40-$60) that bridges the gap between $20 consumer plans and $200 pro plans, nor is there a unified tool to manage multiple accounts seamlessly.

  • its been cr4p going on the 5h 'limit' in 20 min or less.
  • they should fix there 5 hour limit bullshit, it hits with two prompts
  • My 'workaround' so far is to have a second plus plan and keep switching between them.
  • Yeah, currently 2 plus plans is covering me... I just wish it was a bit easier to manage and that you could just buy a single 'x2 Plus plan'
