I’m using the default anti gravity setup. 3.8 medium is my daily driver. This gets me pretty far. (Definitely not as far as Luna and Sol). When I ask the same question to Argon it is 50% of my weekly usage limit gone. So either the usage limit is really a lot smaller or somehow argon thinks a whole lot more even for simple tasks.

i’ll have to test that out. I’ve used argon a bit, but i guess not enough to really push the quota. The actual token based pricing is only 2x

What tasks have you needed it for? So far I’ve only switched for experimentation and while it was better, it didn’t seem necessary, especially given the latency.

I purely intended to use it for review and architectural design given my bad experiences with Gemini coding. The bad experience stemmed from it getting stuck in loops and burning quota. The code quality when it worked was great.

I now asked Argon for a pretty elaborate review and it used only 2% so I will be giving it another shot.

Another thing that can be of influence is that for subscriptions, Google uses some proprietary idea of “work done” for the quota instead of simply how many tokens were burned. I can imagine that this heuristic is sometimes quite off.
