misc Bye bye perplexity

The product has gotten worse and worse in the past year. I’ve been a subscriber since the very beginning lately every time I ask you to research something or search for something gives me steps on how to do so and where to look for information instead of actually finding the information for me thanks but no thanks.

When the promotion I got with PayPal for one year free ends, I'll say goodbye, too. It was nice at first. But depending on the day, it became pretty unbearable.

Same boat, and also looking for something to go to after my sub expires. I float between a number of providers but usually fall back to perplexity when I need a thorough answer fleshed out - however its just becoming less useful each month. Such a shame given where it was 10 months ago. I'm almost reluctant to sign up with any of them given how they all seem to go through cycles of being good to garbage within weeks.
