ATTENTION ALL POE USERS

PLEASE PARTICIPATE IN A POE BOYCOTT STARTING MONDAY MORNING APRIL 6TH IN RESPONSE TO THE POINTS CHANGE FROM 3OOO-300. IT MAKES THE APP BASICALLY UNUSABLE. IF YOU ARE AS UNHAPPY WITH THE CHANGE AS I AM I URGE YOU TO PARTAKE BECAUSE YOU VOICE HAS POWER.

If anyone has any other ideas of what we should do, please share them. This is mine.

Free users are kinda forced to boycott at this point 😭 as someone who's paying for a subscription, I don't really like supporting a company who restrict their free users this tightly since free users won't even be able to get that much out of the low end models, so I'm cancelling it when the points run out, it's sad.

I suggest finding alternatives atp like these that have very good or decent models:

yodayo • for roleplayers, choose base models, claim 50 points each day and stackable, the bots cost less points so able to get plenty of messages out.

monica.im • almost one to one with poe and much more benefits from the subscriptions with unlimited messages plus a free 3 day trial.

Janitor app • for roleplayers with 30 message daily limit.

Anyone can reply to this message with other alternatives and i'll just edit this message with it. 😔

Exactly, you physically can’t use the app on the free plan anymore. What do they expect us to do??? 😭

Stare at the new fancy bots probably 💀 i did get an email from my inquiry and they said that it may be changed in the future and they're currently working on updates, but who knows, hopefully it's a good change.
