The most effective AI coding assistant winds up being a complex interplay between the editor tooling, the language and frameworks being used, and the person driving. I think it’s worth experimenting. Just this afternoon Gemini 3 via the Gemini CLI fixed a whole slate of bugs that Claude Code simply could not, basically in one shot.

If you have the time & bandwidth for it, sure. But I do not, at I'm already at max budget with 200$ Anthrophic subscription.

My point is, the cases where Claude gets stuck and I had to step in and figure things out has been few and far between that I doesn't really matter. If the programmers workflow is working fine with Claude (or codex, gemini etc.), one shouldn't feel like they are missing out by not using the other ones.
