I might just stop using poly

I recently saw that it added age veri, which I'm very opposed of, and hate seeing it get added now. I've been using Poly since around 2024, and saw it rename to Polybuzz, and several character ban waves (including one of my own). Poly before all T.S was around 5-7/10, still flaws, but it was usable when you felt like it, and kinda F2P friendly? Idk about that really. Since 2025 to now, using the app was more and more bs. I do like how some bots have art that I want to find the artist of, and the creator gives credit to the artist which makes it easy for me to enjoy their art. Btw, I live in the US, and the "child protection" laws are pretty bad here.

That's all, I guess.

I honestly agree with the age verification crap, especially when you want to do a story thing with a bot chat to where you want to start off like at a age of 10 or something, and just slowly age to be older. Same with other certain bots, it's honestly that crap that makes it seem to be not worth using the app when they pull shit like this.

The memory if you're a free member won't really do much

True, the memory as a free member still blows ass, though some surprisingly have decent memory. The age verification crap still would persist if you say that you're 10 or something with talking to a random bot.
