First I was able to login successfully but faced 429 too many requests issue, which i opened an issue for on github repo for gemini cli. I noticed that a lot of people are suffering from it too.
opened 07:55AM - 16 Mar 26 UTC
status/need-triage
area/platform
status/possible-duplicate
### What happened?
Im unable to use any model for 24+ hours for now. its been … a while since I used gemini cli so on first run it was updated to 0.33
I tried to revert to 0.31 but it still same issue, on debug console which I didnt know how to export or see it properly I keep seeing **Too Many Requests**.
Note that I was only sending "test" and "hi" prompts, it didnt read anything since the beginning of the issue.
I am unable to see my quotas too.
