Those of you who've used both, what do I need to know about the difference?

You are probably going to fail some dishes at the beginning, it's okay. To know how hot it is, look at the flame underneath the pot, not all dials are reliable. It's my favourite way to cook meat, as it actually turns the heat down when you reduce the flame, unlike resistance electric that takes ages or induction that works as long as you haven't been cooking too long. Get yourself an electric kettle or you will need ages to get warm water for your pasta.
Get yourself some gas detector and get in the habit of opening the windows to ventilate. Take the normal recomanded precaution around open flames, turn the gas off at the arrival when you leave the house for longer than 36 hours.\
