Is Antigravity V2 worth coming back to in 2026? (Left 4 months ago over brutal usage caps)
Hey everyone,
I walked away from Google Antigravity about 4 months ago when they overhauled usage rules. Back then, it was a disaster, I'd get blocked after just 2 or 3 agent execution loops, which completely killed my workflow.
Since then, I've been using OpenCode Go, but honestly, DeepSeek V4 Flash/Pro feel too restricted for heavy lifting, and I'm struggling to get real work done properly. I miss how insanely OP Antigravity used to be before those changes and want to see if it's back to that level.
Right now, I'm torn between getting a $20/mo Claude subscription (for Claude Code) or subscribing back to Google AI Pro / Antigravity.
A few questions for active users:
- Current Experience: How is Antigravity performing now? Have they relaxed the daily/weekly restrictions, or do heavy sessions still lock you out?
- Claude ($20/mo) vs. Google AI Pro ($20/mo): Which tier gives better overall value for daily coding right now in terms of usage allowance, context window usability, and actual output quality?
- Workarounds: Are people sticking to Gemini 3 Flash / 3.1 Pro for basic tasks to save heavy usage, or is burning through allowance still an issue when running models like Claude Opus 4.6 in the IDE?
Would love to hear your recent experiences before pulling the trigger. Thanks!
