r/GeminiAI

I was using gemini almost everyday since 3.1 pro came out and it was great, but updates always come, that you can't stop. its always an update that comes and makes things way worse. so now whenever i want to use gemini, i find it saying i reached my limit almost 5 prompts in a day, when before i never hit my limit, rarely maybe once in the last 3 months. so they expect to continue with the same (pri.c.e) and get less. where have i heard that before? no, I'm cancelling my subscription TODAY, there are other models out there. i was using 3.1 to vibecode anyway, maybe it wasn't the best model, but one thing i will say is that 3.1 RARELY wrote buggy code and knew EXACTLY what i wanted. thats it, that is the only reason i payed for pro plan. whenever i used any other model, it flipped and wrote junk code. oh well it was a fun 3 months... 😞 if anyone can recommend a good coding ai thats not claude thatd be great

there was even one time where it automatically used flash when i had it set to pro, because there was "too much demand so screw your preference"

in conclusion, 3.1 flash light sucks ballz, 3.5 flash isnt flash and uses MORE of your limit so "suck it" -google and if you want to use 3.1 pro the leash is significantly tighter there now. BYE BYE GEMINI

I mean, I made a post about it too but if we want to be "heard" or at least try to, we need to send them feedback using Gemini app they won't listen to us here..

I'm ok pro plan, I'm disgusted about this 5h pro limit that makes us time our prompts and so.

I subscribed for the 300/100 thinking/pro also ofc rag, memory and cross chat but this 5h thing?

We are all upset ND some are even canceling or going to, but we must remember, feedback could be a way.. they need to know they are gonna lose more if they don't remove it.

Some won't get it but I hope some do, and for that, let's bomb "review" them so they can get to know they are going in a wrong way.. my sub just renewed.. I'll wait one month more.. let's see (I'm not on an annual plan)

Sigh… so here we are again with another disappointing Gemini update.

Google really copied the wrong things from Claude. I’ve been subscribed to Gemini Pro for quite a while now, but I finally cancelled my subscription because of these ridiculous daily and weekly limits.

Gemini Legacy wasn’t perfect, but at least it felt usable and almost unlimited. The newer models are definitely more advanced, but honestly, they’re still not on the same level as Claude by Anthropic.

The difference is that Claude is expensive because the quality actually justifies it. With Gemini, it feels like we’re getting stricter limits without enough improvement to make those limits worth it.

Google had something great with Gemini Legacy, and instead of improving the user experience, they made it more restrictive.

At this point, I genuinely think users should speak up about this across platforms like Twitter/X, Threads, Reddit, and other communities. Companies only listen when enough people push back.

This is absolute madness. If they are kept pushing such an extreme updates without a backlash other companies will definitely starts to follow up. At this point this is greediness

We Need to Make Complains Or Cancel Our Subscriptions On Google Gemini , I'm on the pro tier of Gemini and The New usage Limits Are Ridiculous This New Update Is Trash ,We Shall Do Something Or Atleast Try To increase usage limits or remove them

Gemini has already gotten worse recently but I'm not saying this as a rant but completely honestly and objectively: Gemini has gotten completely useless now (unless maybe if you're getting the Ultra tier).

First of all the primary Gemini interface through the Google Android app has become extremely buggy and broken. For months I had issues with prompts not going through/being reset, the interface glitching etc.

Now more problems started to appear such as Gemini not outputting thoughts despite having selected the Pro model, new confusing UI elements that don't show you what mode you're in, Gemini censoring and refusing to answer specific questions and obviously giving incorrect answers for "corporate alignment" and worst of all the app is constantly crashing on my phone (every 2-3 minutes, especially when sending a prompt) and therefore keeps deleting the long prompt I just meticulously made.

On top of all that they now aggressively reduced the Pro subscription tier's quota. It is completely unusable now and after a few prompts within a single chat you get immediately locked out from both the Pro and Flash model for hours. And there even is a weekly limit now that seems to get filled 12% each session. So you can basically use Gemini 8 short times (maybe 5-20 minutes each depending on your usage) for THE WHOLE WEEK!

What on earth is going on here? It basically makes 0 sense now to use Gemini over any other AI chatbot. How can this happen with such a huge company as Google?? The only way I could explain this is that Google is literally trolling now.

I know this is the millionth post you have seen, but we must keep this running for them to realize what they have done is unacceptable. I got a 1 year subscription to google AI plus before the changes, and now Im stuck with these limits because I cant refund.

Exactly 4 prompts finished my 5 hours quota, they were pdf generation, Image generation, and explaining code all on pro model. on another quota after reset, it counted a failed generation (Litterly just printed a message saying the model is under stress and to try again later) happened several times and all got counted into the quota. Keep in mind I have been using gemini for over a year and this is the first time I see this message.

The least they could do is just set a daily quota man, why every 5 hours?? I don't use gemini while sleeping nor at some parts of the day, I sometimes have intense sessions and sometimes dont use gemini at all. Why you don't leave it open to use it anytime.

Looks like they are trying to mimic Anthropic and get away with it.

So this was Google I/O's big 2026 "reveal"?

• A second-tier flash model with "promises" of a frontier model; as Anthropic/OpenAI pump out frontier hits.
• Dramatic usage limit decreases for paid users, making it worse than Claude and ChatGPT.
• A whole bunch of random useless side quests that no one cares about - quantity over quality.

Today really gave Bard vibes. This is the first time I think we're worse off after an "upgrade".

Anyone that is a Pro or higher user today should cancel their service. It is the only way these greedy companies will receive the message. Exhausting all usage in one prompt is beyond ridiculous for a paid AI service.
