I haven't used it myself but a few of my colleagues used it saying it is good and they completed a huge chunk of work with Antigravity, mind you I am very skeptical of this.

The don't seem to be getting any rate limiting issue which I don't understand, maybe a bug in Antigravity allowing them to use it for more. They are really confident in the IDE after a few hours and the output given is really good.


How can that be, aren't Instagram Dms end-to-end encrypted, curious on how they find these kind of messages


They make the app that stores the plaintext at each end... they don't need to decrypt your messages across the wire to read them.


Ah I understand now, thank you. So they can actually read it just not in transit but from the app, isn't that a security violation?


All e2e encrypted apps can do this. It's the price you pay for a completely closed ecosystem that coddles you at every turn because you're too much of a little bean to know what real security is.

Edit: this isn't a dig at you, it's a dig at how google and apple treat you


I didn't know that they are able to do this, now that I know it just makes perfect sense.


A what violation?

I kid. But only sorta.


They advertise e2e as something that is to secure your messages and no one can read it including them, just got surprised when I realized they can view all the messages before transit, I never even thought that that they can do that before encryption


They control the software doing the encryption & decryption - they could ship your private keys to themselves if they truly wanted to be evil.

Who would know?
