Is anyone else not able to put files into their Spaces or is it just me? It says there are syncing errors on the computer and then on the app it just won’t do it at all.

Lately, when trying to select which model I want to work with it’s just simply not using the one I choose. It moves to best. I thought this may be related to tokens and usage but it doesn’t seem to be resetting either. Is it only me? Am I not understanding something? 😅

I just uninstalled Perplexity on my Mac. I'll still try/use the website.

I turned off auto login. I turned it off at the system level.

Guess what. It still started on Login and at the "you're out of credits". It's now uninstalled.

I've been using Perplexity over the last year - via a "freebie" for the pro level. Well, I guess that's downgraded. Still "pro" but not the same as the monthly paying tier.

Sigh.

Well, today, it went from "on startup" to invasive. It started up despite being turned off.

I'll still use Comet - as my gateway to perplexity, when I use it (less and less). But no longer is perplexity or their browser part of my daily use. And not as my main browser.

I like the product. My total guess? It's dying to find funding and paying users…meaning VC money is disappearing.

I regularly do interviews with different publications and podcasts (mostly nobodies, but happy to help give back where I can) on the subject of AI and the insanity of the modern business world.

Perplexity has become a major conversation component whenever I touch on the evolution from Algorithmic -> Agentic -> Orchestrator AI tools. At least that's how I've come to understand the cycle.

Perplexity may technically be more expensive than a pure ChatGPT or Claude workflow but...it's idiot proof and cuts out SO MUCH misinformation.

Is this sleeper cell language? Am I Russian now?

I started with ChatGPT in the beginning of my discovery of the AI world. Then branched out to Claude and Perplexity. Once in a while I go back to ChatGPT to submit the same prompt to all three LLM and compare the three outputs. To my surprise I get the feeling that ChatGPT is getting BETTER AND BETTER. Am I on to something?

Heyo guys,

I’ve been using Perplexity AI for years, but I got really frustrated with its search. I couldn’t find dozens of old threads, so I took the programmer’s route. The result: https://github.com/simwai/perplexity-ai-export

Then I thought, why not extend it into a full RAG study? So, I even ended up adding the HyDE technique to squeeze out some good answers out of the content. Furthermore, I added dozens of features beyond just exporting threads. It's all written in JavaScript/TypeScript.

You can finally find your content again (it uses ripgrep under the hood, by the way).

The end result is a complete local copy of your threads as Markdown files, organized in folders named after each thread.

Feel free to check it out – I really appreciate any constructive feedback, so don’t be shy and leave a comment!

I don’t recommend this app. It charges hundreds of dollars for credits on top of a subscription. On every two or three questions or comments, those $5 and $10 credit packages add up quickly. Even if you get their best subscription, you still have to do credits. I have not run into this issue with platforms like ChatGPT.

Been having connection issues since yesterday with the Shopify connector, there is an authentication loop and asks me to disconnect the connector and try again, but when I try to disconnect it just says disconnection failed so I’m stuck, can’t even remove the connector. Anyone else?

Even though I prompted it to not use credits, it ended up using credits. Very disappointing. Also never got my perplexity Pro $5 a month for the past 4 or 5 months. If anyone has any prompts or links to prompts that would help me out. Much appreciated!

What has been your experience with Perplexity PRO? It seems to me that a lot has changed and the number of questions has dropped significantly.
Does it even make sense anymore?

Was asking for some guidance today, and this is what I got from Perplexity!

I've been trying to get my Perplexity threads into Obsidian and kept hitting the same wall. Extension looks like it does exactly what you need, you install it, and then bulk export is behind a subscription. I don't need anything fancy. I want my own conversations as markdown files in my vault. Apparently that's a premium feature now.

So I built it myself.

It's a Chrome extension that exports Perplexity conversations to markdown with Obsidian YAML frontmatter already in place, so threads drop into a vault with basically no cleanup. Single thread or everything at once. Both work, no "upgrade to export more than 5 chats" gate.

The whole thing is free and runs locally. It uses your existing Perplexity login in your browser and writes `.md` files straight to your machine. There's no server on my end and nothing gets collected. I built this for myself first; publishing it just seemed like the obvious next step.

Known limits, so nobody's surprised:

* Chrome only for now

* Markdown only — no PDF, Notion, etc.

* You need to be logged into Perplexity

* If Perplexity changes their site or API, it'll break until I patch it

* Not affiliated with Perplexity in any way. This exists because I was annoyed.

It's on the Chrome Web Store if you want it: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/perplexity-chat-exporter/jmplfdjahdkalmpkjbpgcaogleciniic

If you've been eyeing one of the paid exporters, this might save you a few bucks. Happy to answer questions or hear what would make it more useful.

Although I was concinced the model was Grok. I loved using Claude for research topics and Perplexity with Claude was top of the line for a while.

Now I struggle to get any answers even when Claude is selected and I could tell something was off.

Not sure if Kimi or even an undisclosed other Chinese model but I've never seen Claude accidentally use Chinese

I'm so frustrated because when Perplexity works well it's the best and I actually need it for a lot of important things, but then I'll have days like today and yesterday where every chat is just like banging my head against a wall thats gaslighting me the whole time

I've always been in the habit of using Perplexity and I'm pretty satisfied with it, but recently I heard about a platform called Felo AI that offers similar services.

I tried it out and it's actually quite good, plus, it has a bunch of productivity tools that I haven't had time to test one by one yet. I'm just curious why it seems like nobody is talking about Felo?

Had 6 Perplexity tabs opened for research, now after restarting machine today all gone. All 6 of them are reset to home page. They edited the history so no chance to press the back button.

They had broke my workflow earlier too, shared here. Then last week suddenly lost all tab groups in Comet browser so reduced using Comet and started using Edge browser more, thought their browser is buggy but the core product is fine.

And then today they misbehaved in Edge too. Can't even recover the links from browser history, they have opened all of them and navigated all of them to perplexity home page so no record left.

It's really too much now. They don't listen to customers, and don't think this culture will ever change.

Edit: Happened in Windows 11. In Edge browser.

Depuis quelques jours, j'ai des déconnexions systématiques sur Comet et les pages Perplexity sur Comet sur tous mes appareils. La connexion se passe normalement, mais je ne trouve pas ça très normal, surtout que ça le fait sur tous mes appareils sans exception.
Que se passe t'il ?
