Got off Gemini before they ended the cli, was not working for me, and went to Codex and opencode/deepseek flash v4 0731 which was working ok.

But got the google ai pro free 1 yr student - been liking agy quite alot actually - pretty good weekly allotment. Like the default, Flash 3.7 high.

Even bought extra credits I've been hammering it all day long.

People talk all day about coding but where this thing amazes me is devops. It hooked itself to discord so i can command it, set up or troubleshoot ssh servers on my home network. Blew my mind a couple times.

I use it for all my non-professional work and I find it works well enough for me.

Mostly for things that I know are possible and have a vague idea of how I would do it, but it would take me longer. Some examples in no particular order:

* Made my wife's travel blog/site

* Chrome extension for Crunchyroll to allow multisubs + local translation for unsupported languages (so my wife and I can watch and she doesn't need to focus extra hard reading English)

* Same as above for Netflix

* Setup multi subs with mpv (some Lua plugin shenanigans)

* Setup proton for warcraft 3 + wc3 champions (unofficial ladder) on Linux

* Setup a bunch of xrandr aliases for my different monitor uses (I'm still on x11)

If you need a custom chrome/firefox extension or to create some bespoke Linux QoL stuff, it works great. This was all Gemini Flash 3.5-3.7 (been using it for a while). I suspect pretty much anything would succeed at these tasks, but I just stick with antigravity because it works for me(and I'm on some discounted plan).

My experience recently is that antigravity CLI is much better than Gemini CLI now. Gemini would often get stuck in loops before. Fine for personal projects at least, especially for the price (got a year’s sub for $5 on G2A)

But I don’t think it’s as good as Claude Code or Codex yet.

It is used seriously inside Google (the internal equivalent version). Many people swear by it and many don't think it's as good as Claude/Codex.

Am also curious on this! Though if it’s great now I’d need a sustained period of consistency (let’s say six months) before I try it again - the rollercoaster of getting a new randomized feature and quality experience every week got old pretty quick. (And I felt bad for recommending it to a few people at the time based on a good week)
