>Gemini rarely gets the hint when I express annoyance with its output.
Ive noticed this, but you close out gemini, immediately go back in and suddenly it works great.
>- Gemini once kept using an old version of a file I had updated by hand, despite me asking it several times to re-read the file. It also sometimes proposes empty changes.
Ive had this happen several times now. Kept reverting my changes. Close out gemini, reopen fixes.
>Gemini's format for proposing changes in the terminal is such that you often can't make you out what's actually changing
For python i havent experienced this. it gives me it well every time.
>Gemini's permission systems is not as usable as Claude Code's.
I never trusted it with any permission. Im not sure id do any different with claude.
>Claude can be started with an initial prompt and still retain interactive mode. This option is useful for priming the session with instructions in a more direct way that CLAUDE.md. As far I can tell, Gemini can't anything similar.
No, i havent seen anythinglike this. Im not sure what you mean.
>I guess the thing going for it is that it has a free tier of use, and the core intelligence is probably about on par with Claude. But it's slow too.
Free for the win. Main reason I havent tried claude code. Even the claude pro, their limits are 45 queries per 5 hours? Like wow ill blow through that in minutes.
