    I don’t understand good experiences people are having with Gemini. It’s the only model that sometimes loses/forgets context in literally next message. Plus feeding unasked product links to responses.

      Have you tried Gemini 3.8 Flash recently ?

      I was like you before, Gemini was the worst model to me.

      Then 3.8 came out. At first I was sceptical, but this model *is* able to do useful things ! Complex things.

      Of course, it is NOT perfect. But for things like small/medium complex tasks subagents, it's perfect.

      Now, is it worth the money vs Astra ? I don't think so. But still my point remain relevant.
