Is perplexity still relevant?

Hardly, but I applaud the effort they do to remain in existence.
They might get relegated to niche use cases, or pivot like Midjourney. I'm glad they exist, even for the sake of fighting against the duopoly that's just forming with OpenAI and Anthropic.
Perplexity can fight Gemini for that 3rd spot. Gemini is kind of fumbling it, so they have a real fighting chance, imho.

Why is Gemini fumbling it? I use it for most of my personal projects and it's great for those.

I get better quality output from Perplexity than Gemini.
That said, I stick to Claude in the terminal for 99% of my LLM usage.

Is this a gemini vs Antigravity-cli thing? I use agy as my cli at home and it's as good as Opus/Sonnet for me -- but I haven't tried very taxing tasks. I use Aragon/Flash. I'm not modifying large code bases, more like vibe coding throwaway projects at home.

I use Gemini it's bundled with my phone contract. Its privacy is nightmare there is no opt out.
