I kept a personal license for while because I thought Windsurf kept memories a little better than Claude.

But now since I use Claude at work I switched to keep my home and work stacks similar.

Isn't windsurf now antigravity? because i still used antigravity for a while this year because of how the agent can natively try to test web pages using chrome which helps it find UI bugs,but i use mostly claude code now though

I think Windsurf is to Antigravity as Atom was to VSCode

The team behind Windsurf was acquired by Google, but Windsurf remains its own independent IDE somehow.

Just checked again, still looks like it's called Windsurf to me.

They are different. Antigravity is by Google, another one is not.
