Same here.
I often start with 1.5x and go up to 2x or 3x after a few minutes.
It's extremely important for online courses that would normally take weeks to watch and it starts feeling normal so quickly. When I go back to 1x it feels like people talk in slow-motion.
But I think quizzes are important in that context, otherwise the new knowledge won't solidify.
I'm always impressed of how much of my duolingo Spanish skills are still present, even if I didn't use the app for half a year or read any Spanish in that time.
