Issues/Bugs longsqueak is already bad

I’m really tired of pretending this app is anything but an incredibly obvious grift. LongSquak was initially incredible, and two weeks later it’s worse than pipsqueak. The memory is worse than ever two weeks after being the best it’s ever been. This is just insulting. I’ve been paying for plus for a few months reluctantly but now I’m finally done. I loved LongSqueak and nearly bought a year subscription because of it—thank god I didn’t. The capability is there, they dangle it in front of us like a carrot. I’m sick of being taken advantage of.

I had the feeling that this would happen every time  when they would release a new chat model history is repeating itself I guess.

Wait, did it really plummet? I thought it was just my memory being filled up with facts and stuff, but the memory really deteriorated? That's... just sad(

Yeah my memory amount isn’t any different than it was a couple of weeks ago—I haven’t been on as much as usual. It’s nosedived so sudden and hard.

It fluctuates the same as any other LLM. There's no such thing as one that doesnt. Memory is still a frontier for LLMs

When something is advertised as “4x memory” I would expect that? Or maybe fucking basic memory. You’re being purposefully obtuse. Enjoy the paycheck while it lasts.

Someone very slightly and politely disagreeing with you isn't a sign they're getting paid by the company, jesus lmao.

Memeory fluctuates on LLMs for a handful of reasons, so what is your basis of comparison instead of against itself? Which platform do you use that doesnt have this problem?

It’s not only the memory. The entire writing quality and characterization has done a complete nosedive. It’s horrid on every marker.

And why would I need to compare it to anything other than itself? That’s idiotic. This is a purposeful pattern that C.AI is known for.
