What happened?

I could understand waiting for the top-of-the-line 3.1 Pro model, but today I'm waiting 15-20 minutes for a FLASH model to run a single command. And I have several commands to run, so the tool will spend an hour or two just running commands that can be activated in seconds? Where's the great innovation?

Listen, this is a PAID product, and you're making fun of us. There's no response from support, and every thread about limits here is silenced. Once a month, someone posts, "Yes, we know about the limit issues." And what good is to us if you know? Your contact channels don't even know much about the existence of "gemini-cli."

You sell a SUBSCRIPTION (https://codeassist.google/) for this tool!

Should we report fraud to local consumer protection authorities, or what?

What did you expect to happen?

Not waiting 15-20 minutes for single flash model call.

  • Considering the subscription-based nature of the product, the user may also want to review the terms of service and support options.
