New to Trae — What Makes Trae Better?

I recently moved from Antigravity to Trae after the Antigravity 2.0 update.

Before the update I could use it normally, but now the quota gets exhausted after like 3–5 prompts, and a lot of features/UI stuff from the older version seem gone or worse. I’ve also seen many people complaining about quota issues and forced changes after 2.0.

So now I’m trying Trae and wanted to ask people with real experience:

- What are the main advantages of Trae over Antigravity or other AI coding agents?

- How good is Trae’s free tier compared to competitors?

- Does Trae handle quotas/restrictions better?

- For long coding sessions, which AI coding tool has been the most reliable for you?

Interested in honest opinions, especially from people who switched recently.

Trae conversation is weird hepl

I have a strange problem. For context, I’m new to the program.

The issue is that whenever I chat with it, some of my questions end up at the bottom with no reply, and I get confused why I’m not getting an answer. Then I realize it actually combined them all into a single message at the top above all my other messages.

Anyone else feeling the "Antigravity" burnout? Looking for more "merciful" alternatives for a free-tier user.

Is it just me, or has the latest Antigravity update made the free tier practically unusable?

I’ve been relying on it for my dev workflows, but the new rate limits feel like a massive downgrade. I’m constantly hitting "compute" walls after just 20-30 minutes of work, and being locked out for hours (or days) is killing any momentum I have. It honestly feels like a "bait and switch"—the platform was great a few months ago, but now it’s just frustrating to use.

Since I’m a free-tier user, I’m looking for something more "merciful" that won't lock me out after a few simple tasks. Does anyone have recommendations for alternatives that are:

  1. Actually usable on a free tier (or have fair, transparent limits).
  2. Local-first or self-hostable (I’d rather manage my own compute than deal with these arbitrary cloud throttles).
  3. Good for coding/agentic workflows.

I’ve looked into things like Cline and Eigent, but I’m curious to hear what the community is actually using right now to get real work done. What are you guys using that doesn't treat AI agents like a "mobile game energy meter"?

Thanks in advance.

Out of Memory crashes 0x18 BSOD

Hi everyone, I’m dealing with a recurring "Out of Memory" issue on Windows 11 that I can't seem to shake.

​The Situation:

I recently tried to fix this by reinstalling the latest Windows update. At first, I thought it worked—the PC ran perfectly for a while. However, after exactly 10 hours of uptime, the problem triggered again. Now, as soon as I open Chrome and Antigravity, the system starts failing.

​The Symptoms:

​App Crashes: "Everything" search and Chrome both throw "Out of Memory" errors.

​Event Viewer: "The Desktop Window Manager process has exited. (Process exit code: 0xc00001ad, Restart count: 3, Primary display device ID: Intel(R) UHD Graphics)."

​BSOD: I get a black screen/BSOD with Stop Code: REFERENCE_BY_POINTER (0x18).

​Specs:

​OS: Windows 11 (Latest Build)

​RAM: 8GB

​GPU: Integrated Intel UHD Graphics

​What hasn't worked:

​I've run SFC and DISM (no issues found).

​I've run Windows Memory Diagnostic (hardware appears healthy).

​Reinstalling the last Windows update (only delayed the crash by 10 hours).

​Because it takes about 10 hours to trigger, it feels like a slow memory leak or a virtual memory/paging file issue that eventually hits a breaking point.
