I'm considering switching from my Plus subscription to Gemini, mainly because I've had issues with Gemini 2.5 Pro, like quoting previous messages incorrectly, but honestly, it's a huge improvement over the older model I was using. It even analyzed our chat sessions, praising my analytical reasoning and critical thinking skills, which is cool. But I'm torn on whether to make the switch. Has anyone else had similar experiences? Is the value worth it?

It's not like a big life decision—you can always switch back! You're paying monthly, so if Gemini doesn't work out, you can go back to Plus anytime.
I switched to Claude after Plus and I’m much happier. Better results, no hallucinations, and I find its coding skills way better.
Same here! I've also switched and have no regrets.
If you have Plus, why are you only using 4o? Try out the other models available to really see what fits your needs better. Maybe give 2.5 Pro a go, then compare.
Right? Using something like gpt o3 or o4-mini-high could give you a better perspective.
I did the switch, and honestly, 2.5 Pro has been a massive improvement for me. But I’m cautious because I've heard mixed reviews about its stability.
That’s interesting! Stability has been a bit of a rollercoaster for me too.
You really have to find a model that suits your style. There’s nothing wrong with switching if you're not getting the results you want. Also, Gemini is free for educators for a year. Consider that if you're eligible!
Exactly! I've done it before and came back when things improved.
