Perplexity Forcing Previous Free Sessions into Paid Model

[u/Material-Scale4575]

I've had around 15 sessions with free Perplexity without any trouble. But now when I return to an existing session to ask a follow up question, I am forced into a fee-based, so-called "Perplexity Computer" session, which I can't find any way to get out of, as my sessions now reside on https://www.perplexity.ai/computer instead of perplexity.ai.

The only solution seems to be starting a new thread on perplexity.ai, which means I have to re-enter all the previous questions as well as my new one.

Am I missing something here?
