I want to say "Please just go back to how it was in 2024" but I think that's not affordable for them, and the site was only set up that way to try and build a userbase of people who will desperately cling to the site once they make bs changes like this.
I personally am checking almost daily to see if the founder stops killing this site, but I think this is one of the last changes before they're done with it.
I think it got to a point where it's not affordable in the long run, and they're gonna keep it in this stagnant state that every other AI site is in where you have to pay a slowly worsening price to get anything good out of it.
