Charging speed depends on the car. My Bolt (and the current Bolt and Bolt EUV) max charges at 50kw. In actuality, it's between 15 and 34kw (depending on weather).

If I have to fast charge, it's over an hour to get to 80%.

An hour to get to 80% of the 2017-2019 Bolt's 238 mile advertised capacity isn't far from the numbers in the comment you replied to. That's 60 minutes to get 190 miles, compared to the comment's 45 minutes for 180 miles (4 miles/minute vs 3 miles/minute).
