I'm Leaving Gemini for Tax Reasons
3 points by liamOR 12 hours ago | 2 comments

Google doesn't allow non-business accounts to receive invoices. I must sign up for a Workspace subscription (which I neither want nor need) to be able to receive an invoice in the format I need for my Gemini subscription to be charged as a business expense. It's silly, as I do not need to do such things on OpenAI's and Anthropic's respective services - A two second settings change. Therefore, I have to leave Gemini.

What were you using Gemini for? I feel like it’s pretty low quality compared to the others

I use it as a rubber duck. I found it very useful to articulate my thoughts with and come to sensible solutions. I don't use it agentically. I force myself to write all the code myself so I know my code base well and to be sure that I'm always learning.

The pro subscription limit seems to be quite generous for the price and quality. However, I feel more often than not it ignores my prompts that ask it to search the internet (which is ironic considering it's Google).
