The "Our servers are experiencing high traffic right now, please try again in a minute." bug that came with my Ultra upgrade

Hello everyone. I just wanted to drop by and express my absolute gratitude for the premium experience I’m receiving right after upgrading to the Ultra Plan.

I naively thought that paying for the top tier would—you know—actually allow me to use the service and bypass the bottleneck queues. Instead, my local development has been completely paralyzed, and I am constantly greeted by this beautiful, unyielding message:

“Our servers are experiencing high traffic right now, please try again in a minute.”

It is truly impressive how egalitarian your system is. Ultra subscribers get to enjoy the exact same forced agent shutdowns and locked workflows as the free tier. What an amazing way to ensure we all share the pain equally! Priority access? Never heard of it.

And to make this premium experience even more flawless, when I tried to submit a bug report through the official channel, that feature was conveniently broken too. A truly perfect ecosystem where I can neither work on my local environment nor complain about it.

Could someone from the team please enlighten me on what exactly my money went towards? Is the “Priority Access” just an invisible badge of honor, or do I need to pay for some hidden “Ultra Pro Max” tier to actually edit my code?

Looking forward to a fix, or at least an explanation, before my subscription expires. Thanks for the “great” service.

Hello. This is a user of Google Antigravity who is very happy too about the service I am using. I am currently enjoying a Pro subscription for this marvelous service.

I’ve also been experiencing this lovely bottlenecks pretty much since always. But since yesterday the agent has not replied to a single prompt, not even a “Hello, can you read this?” prompt. I also want to thank Google for allowing me to take this long break, because since the servers don’t work, I don’t have to work either, which is great because we all need a rest sometimes, right?

The Pro plan is great for quotas that run out in a single prompt (when the model actually wants to work) and refresh in weeks, and the great equity that we’re all experiencing with the servers’ bottlenecks.

I also want to thank Google, because as the small enterprise they are, and with the very little amount of servers they own, it must be very hard and expensive for them to set up servers that actually work. Unfortunately, since Google is not a trillions dollar company it’s completely normal to experience consistent server traffic bottlenecks and errors.

As soon as my Pro subscription expires I’m looking forward to not spend a single dollar more on this neglected service.
