I love my gas stove, we just upgraded the hood, the old one barely covered the range top and was so loud nobody wanted to be in the kitchen when it was running. As unofficial family safety officer and fun dampener I'm always turning it on but that basically made conversations impossible and multitasking difficult.

I grew up with electric ranges and then my young adulthood saw a series of lowest possible price stoves included in apartments, I could not wait to get away from them.

Our extremely crappy coil based electric range burned out and at the time I researched it a pretty nice gas stove was half of what a comparable induction stove was. Now I understand there are more options and it seems obvious to go induction for the next one.

That being said I think I will miss the gas stove, it feels very intuitive the way the flame reacts to the knob and the speed that the pans heat. The coil stoves I have used have all had hot spots, it isnhard to tell when they have reached full temperature and different cookware heats up very differently.
