alt Hacker NewsI'm trying paid tier Gemini and it doesn't allow to keep have personal chat history when you disable training on your data, on reload of the page your chat is gone. Even free tier of ChatGPT allows disabling training on your data while allowing to keep such basic functionality.
Some technical advancements are not worth it if you do not respect your users.

How does their top tier subscription compare in usage limits to the $200/mo Claude usage limits?
Another basic feature that’s missing is sharing a Gemini chat as a link anyone can view.
OpenAI figured this out: it’s awesome marketing when people send each other links to the app with a convenient text box to continue the conversation. It’s viral.
Google meanwhile set this up so that “anyone with the link can view” is actually “anyone with the link and a Google account”.
That’s grade A failure of marketing.
The PM in charge of that decision ought to be walked off a plank.
Yeah I’m never using a Google product. The sole purpose of their company is to be evil. At least other companies are indifferent.
