It seems that they still block access from Europe, or from Germany at least.

Use it on fal.ai

Since API currently is not working (seems rate limits not set for Image Generation yet) I tried on fal.

Definitely inferior to results I see on AI Studio and image generation time is 6s on AI Studio vs 30 seconds on Fal.AI

Quality or latency?

Latency. Started using API. Gets response directly on Gemini API in under 6 seconds. Fal.ai takes about 30 seconds.
