Informe se tá usando algum system instruction, qual é a versão do gemini, se vc paga ou não, print do erro, verificar em outro navegador, teste os padrões mais óbvios, ele dá erro só com texto etc…

actually the problem was resolved, it was my fault not checking the status of the network I was using. Though, still, I have the 429 resource problem despite being a paid tier 1 with gemini-pro-3-preview. Have already sent the information to other moderator regarding this. Thank you for answers and help
