I get better quality output from Perplexity than Gemini.

That said, I stick to Claude in the terminal for 99% of my LLM usage.

Is this a gemini vs Antigravity-cli thing? I use agy as my cli at home and it's as good as Opus/Sonnet for me -- but I haven't tried very taxing tasks. I use Aragon/Flash. I'm not modifying large code bases, more like vibe coding throwaway projects at home.

I too get better flavor from dog turds than rat turds.

Not disputing this.

That said, LLMs can be fun toys regardless of the hype.

Toys, sure.

It's usually not a good idea to build gas pipelines directly to your toys in the middle of a climate crisis.

Again, not disputing this either.
