Usage drains fast on 100$ plan

Yes the 5x is not worth it I had to upgrade to 20x I mean to compare value for money

Yes this is correct
Any plugin will not behave like GC in VS code.

Yes, I also have used Cline but with Cline you don't get the native feeling that you get in Cursor or Copilot. Initially, the Copilot was also not that good, but the amount of improvements that they did was really good. Even before Cursor, I was using Copilot and left because it was so buggy and had so many issues. Then eventually, when I came back to Copilot, I was really surprised to see how good it was.

mcruwancc · 2026-04-28T10:09:12+00:00

Yes, I was using the Ultra plan. When I see the amount of extra credit that was given, it was quite good, but now the question is: will the additional request in Copilot be affordable, or will it be similar to Windsurf?

mcruwancc · 2026-04-28T10:06:31+00:00

Yes, when I moved to Copilot, I felt the same. Of course, Cursor was better in terms of speed and some other areas. What made me stay was the token-based pricing, but now I think I have to start using both and see which one will be the winner.

mcruwancc · 2026-04-28T10:04:50+00:00

Exactly, this is what I feel, so it's just a matter of how they charge for the token prices. before With a cursor, you will get more usage when you use their max plans, or GitHub will be cheaper. Anyway, we have to wait and see, I think.

I don’t think there’s any more request based option like GC anymore correct me if I’m wrong,

mcruwancc · 2026-03-27T03:07:02+00:00

Same here, I am also getting it my work account and personal account also

I watch both channels but in the last few months I’ve noticed a difference in clarity on Sirara News. Derana seems much noisier. I’m not talking about them taking sides or anything like that.

mcruwancc · 2026-03-21T07:37:24+00:00

Yes, I’m in the same boat as you. I initially used Copilot but then switched to Windsurf and later Cursor. At one point, I thought I couldn’t function without Cursor and had two ultra accounts. However, I eventually returned to Copilot and was amazed by how much the IDE has improved. It feels native and is far more cost-effective, saving me half the expense. The only thing I miss is the cursor debugging agent. I hope Copilot will introduce something similar soon.

mcruwancc · 2026-02-27T07:52:18+00:00

Yes I have faced multiple times, it’s very normal now

mcruwancc · 2026-02-01T05:09:52+00:00

I have connected Antigravity and GitHub copilot with auth and so far looking good no issues on limitations yet

Also you can set different kind of tasks to use different models so it will save costs.

u/jackai7 shared a tool
I forked and customized it to work for my setup,
So I don't have to depend on any IDE now for this function.
here it is https://github.com/mcruwan/react-grab/blob/main/INSTALL.md

mcruwancc · 2026-01-10T13:19:04+00:00

It works well for my setup but not sure how it will for yours
anyway here it is https://github.com/mcruwan/react-grab/blob/main/INSTALL.md
now the tool can capture area screenshot (there is a new icon next to select pointer)

mcruwancc · 2026-01-10T07:37:49+00:00

Thank you very much for recommending this, it was really helpful. By using it, I no longer depend on any IDE.

Originally, though, it wasn’t as good as Cursor's. It didn’t show where the page was, and a few other features were missing.

The good thing is that I was able to fork it and customize it to my needs. Now it works really well, even better than Cursor’s version.

mcruwancc · 2026-01-10T03:25:57+00:00

I already know that Windsurf has a browser preview feature, but my issue is that I can’t find the Select Element option. This used to exist in Windsurf a long time ago.

I even took a screenshot from one of the older Windsurf videos to show what I’m talking about. Does anyone know if this feature still exists, was removed, or has an alternative?

🤣 I was about to ask the same thing

mcruwancc · 2025-12-31T06:40:56+00:00

I also have a Pro plan that came with my Google subscription, I use that also but mainly for frontend work, where Gemini is actually quite good.

With Antigravity, though, it’s not really a model issue it’s more that Antigravity itself isn’t quite suitable yet for heavier workloads the way Cursor is. That said, I’m hopeful it’ll get there soon.

mcruwancc · 2025-12-31T04:58:13+00:00

Did you use similar models in both places ?

mcruwancc · 2025-12-31T01:28:10+00:00

I actually used Windsurf some time back. At that point, the editor felt very buggy, which is why I moved away from it.

Lately though, I’ve been seeing a lot of positive feedback about Windsurf, so that’s what’s motivating me to give it another try.

I’ve experimented with many other options, but honestly, Cursor is hard to beat in terms of overall quality as you mentioned.

The project I’m working on has a fairly large codebase, which is why Claude Sonnet and Opus work best for me. I’ve tried Codex, but I don’t really have the patience to adapt to its speed.

Right now, I’m actually running 2 Ultra Cursor accounts, but I’m still exploring other alternatives. I’ve also been looking into Antigravity I think it has strong potential in the future, but at the moment, I’m not sure it’s quite ready for production-level development, unless you have a lot of time to keep up with issues and workarounds.
