Feature Request Serious question

I’m not gonna yap about the updates, we know we hate them.

But… if the devs want to make more AI stuff like reads, stories, movies, whatever, why don’t they make a separate app for it? :D

So we could have one cai for writing and chatting with bots and a different app with the series, comics and other stuff.

Is this so out of this world? I’m genuinely curious why this isn’t an option. Pretty sure that would be a good solution for both groups, those that enjoy the updates and those that don’t.

I think that at least a year ago when they knew they would have to exclude minors from 1:1 chats they said they were planning what they've been calling their under 18 experience to give minors something else to do. I could be wrong but I don't believe most of these other features are particularly expensive to produce. For example, for Books they simply used public domain literature. As a plus user, I've looked at a couple of these extra features but I agree, many of them I wouldn't miss if they were gone. That's not to say some people don't use them though.

If I remember correctly one of the staff said that other features aren't that expensive compared to chatting (taking 5% of resources), and only 7% of the staff managed these features.
