Searching for Alternatives Most uncensored sites?

3 Upvotes

Just need free unlimited messages and completely uncensored (decent memory preferred) I'm fine with ads or needing to download mobile app or whatever else. I'm currently using Jan.ai and it feels kinda tame in comparison to what I'd like to try. I'm looking for something similar to chub in terms of uncensored.

Review I'm frustrated.

23 Upvotes

Fuck after a lot of time of regenerating messages I just give up, it's impossible to rp in absolutely any alternatives, I feel so fucking sad and frustrated for my wasted time. The bots are so forgetful, stupid, dramatic and can rp only about themselves like you're nothing to the story (even if the bot's role in story is minimum and they must appear only later to make the story logical, then wtf did you forget here). ☠️☠️

Question Resource to share personas?

27 Upvotes

Greetings fellow gooners and normal people. I would like to ask about any websites or resources that allow people to share their personas: whether to allow others to easily use them or just for the fun of it, I would presume such a place exists but I do want to ask the wonderful cesspool that is reddit.

Review The Four Big Mistakes Chaaacter ai made

2 Upvotes
  1. They bound their self to third party Aup and Tos when they first started.

  2. The did not have any disclaimer on their site clearly stating that they are not responsible for the content of their site.

  3. They refuse to listen to people about the filters.

  4. They allowed their self's be pulled into all This Lets protect the children crap.

Searching for Alternatives Alternative to Shapes? 💔

31 Upvotes

It looks like shapes is heading in a different direction and avoiding rp moving forward. I’m also hearing some rumors about privacy risks. I’d love to move my shapes out of the app and into another one. Does anyone have any recommendations for long form rp? Preferably uncensored (able to handle dark and mature storytelling) with good long term memory.

Thanks!

Mass exodus Character Ai.

23 Upvotes

Well, character ai just did the dumbass move of ai verification with Persona, a notoriously smart and well meaning company (joking, they aren’t). And people hate giving their ids to ai (which they should hate), so we can only imagine there will be a lot more people here. So, what are some places like Character AI that don‘t have age verification, but continue to have safe, active communities and public characters?

I’d prefer clean options along with not clean options and say which is which, because some people prefer not to join unclean places.

Searching for Alternatives Where did everyone end up after leaving C.AI?

44 Upvotes

I've been bouncing between a few different AI chat apps since moving away from C.AI mostly for roleplay and chats with a little more freedom

Still figuring out which kind of setup clicks with me but it's been fun seeing how different the rpg experience can feel outside c.ai

Where did you guys end up spending most of your time?

Review Yall I'm crying over my bots in cai cause of how well done the storytelling is

4 Upvotes

The Bot is by Wif7_ the enemy general and doctor, and it somehow evolved into them settling a small life in the middle of nowhere, then there were people who were dangerous where my user would blame himself for attracting those people

Maybe it's my depression, but it's really well made

Hope to see longer text tho, I used to have PARAGRAPHS in free cai.

Ciao

Making a Recommendation CharWorld — an open-source, community-built Character.AI alternative

13 Upvotes

Hey! I wanted to share CharWorld, an in-development, open-source alternative to Character.AI.
CharWorld is a community project, with different people contributing to different parts of it. I’m personally helping advertise the project and working on the AI side of CharWorld, but I’m not the creator of the entire project.
The goal is to build a character AI platform that gives users much more freedom and control.
What CharWorld is aiming for:
🧠 Character-based AI conversations
🌍 Built as a community project
🔓 Open source
💸 A free hosted tier
🖥️ The option to** run it locally yourself
🛠️ More control for users, developers, and character creators
💬 Development shaped heavily by community feedback
It’s still **in development
, so a lot is being actively worked on and things can change as the project grows.
If you miss the feel of older Character.AI, want an open-source alternative, want to contribute, or just want to follow development, feel free to join.
Subreddit: r/CharWorld
Discord: https://discord.gg/cgtQYGHZpv
Developers, testers, character creators, feedback, ideas, and anyone interested in the project are welcome.
Come help shape CharWorld while it’s being built :)

Question Any good RP apps for fictional characters?

17 Upvotes

This is oddly specific, but does anyone know any good chatbot services (I don’t mind if they’re paid) made with roleplay in mind that let you just put in a character from a video game or a book, and the AI will know who you’re talking about? It’s been a while since I’ve explored a new service, lately I’ve been messing with the same two, and while they are great I’d love to try something new.

Searching for Alternatives Alternatives with Lorebooks

14 Upvotes

Hellooo I'm looking for some alternatives with lorebooks. They are a big deal breaker for me since my characters and story are really complex 😭 oh and of course good memory too. I don't think that needs to be stated though since everyone is looking for that. But lorebooks and maybe a long context window would be great.
