We've onboarded the Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite along with variants (Thinking, Online, etc.) super quick on @yupp_ai and are already gathering preferences! Check out the thread for more. Here's a fun comparison of the thinking variant (left) with the standard one!
At @yupp_ai we add new models as soon as they drop! @sundarpichai tweeted about Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite yesterday. Soon after, it was available to our global users. Less than 24h later weāve gathered 10K+ global user preferences! And it looks greatā¦ š§µ.

36 hours and over 6K votes later, you have a thread from @lintool on takeaways from our end @yupp_ai on @xai's Grok 4!.
Itās been 36 hours since Grok 4 launched and we have an early verdict based on 6K+ preferences of @yupp_ai users globally on real use cases. ā¼ļø Grok 4 is worse than other leading models: OpenAI o3, Claude Opus 4, and Gemini 2.5 Pro. Grok 4 is liked even less than Grok 3. š§µ
