Just realized my air fryer burns toast faster than my old toaster ever could

Tried to make toast in my air fryer last Tuesday cause I was too lazy to dig out the toaster. Set it for 3 minutes at 350 and it came out black as charcoal, actually smoked up my whole kitchen. I learned that air fryers are just tiny convection ovens that blast heat way too direct for bread. Has anyone else wrecked a breakfast that way or am I just dumb?

2 minutes at 300 is WAY too long for a toaster oven. I do 1 minute 45 seconds at 350 and check it halfway or you get uh, free charcoal basically.
