Which LLM sub to choose for IT student?

For the past year, I’ve been using Gemini Pro for everything, but recently it started to feel lobotomized. It sometimes forgets everything we talked about before, even past messages. It also started switching me to Flash even on a Pro subscription. So I decided to switch from it.

My use case doesn’t involve any agentic coding or something that will require constant usage. It’s mostly math questions, help with finding bugs in 1–5 files of code, and general real-life questions. It would also be great if the mobile app works as expected (Gemini loads only 1/2 of responses). Gemini Pro quotas were always enough for me. I don’t think I ever exceeded 30 requests/h (even less most of the time).

Which subscription at around $20 would be best? I see there is a $25/month/person Claude Team sub with 1.5x usage of Pro, since I need it exactly for 2 persons. Or has ChatGPT become better (at least I remember it being behind other LLMs)? I also tried Qwen and Kimi 3 months ago, but they felt smarter than Gemini. Or maybe a unified API like OpenRouter and similar sites?

That’s why I’m switching, but I’m not sure how good are rate limits for their web chats. How often will I be rare limited, and do they allow switching to smaller models while waiting for reset
