alt Hacker Newsgemini-cli has not been useable for weeks. The API endpoint it uses for subscription users is so heavily rate-limited that the CLI is non-functional. There are many reports of this issue on Github. [1]

I use Gemini-CLI at work, and haven't noticed anything. I use Google Jules (free tier) on a toy project much more heavily and can't complain. I think sometimes the prompts take longer than they used to, but I couldn't care less. I'm not in a hurry.
