M.C.
Senior Software Engineer
I've been using Gemini 3.8 Flash for refactoring a 50-file codebase and it's the first model that actually keeps track of changes across files without me re-explaining everything. The 1M-token context window is a game changer — I dropped in the whole project and it just worked. The high thinking level costs more tokens, but the quality is worth it for complex engineering tasks. Gemini 3.8 Flash is now my default for any serious coding work.
