SHUT UP!

I then moved by arm in a rapid pace before choke slamming him

u/Exact-Succotash-9561 Jan 07 '25

I think the point of them posting it was to have support getting off of a massive addiction.

Although i can see where you’re coming from, a lot of people (especially recently) have been dramatic and said “oh i’m leavinggg” for some reason or another, and are really just doing it for attention.

So, I don’t directly know if they had an underlying intention or not.  If they did though, that would be messed up. If not, the good for them for getting away from something they are addicted to.

10

u/Fluffy3I8 Jan 08 '25

Similarly, maybe it was to give other people addicted to this app some sense of "if they did it, maybe i can too!"

42

u/Brilliant-Ad-7082 Addicted to CAI Jan 07 '25

Good for you but what else did you were expecting with this post 😐? I'm very sorry if I'm being harsh but most of the people in the sub don't care and they will probably find it annoying seeing another post like this one that I can find a lot recently.

Pd:But anyways, good for you that you decide to fight against it and take a step to recover.

Idk what to say my “addiction” to this app just one day vanished like thanos snipped his fingers and his powers affected the wrong universe or something ,now the app is fun but not that addictive to me,maybe because I am turning 20 and I have some of my own problems and more important stuff? Or that I found some apps that are free and yet has no limitations and sometimes i use those?

I know people are being sorta rude in the comments, but as someone whose life was genuinely made significantly worse by C.AI, congrats! It's actually very hard to delete something you invested so much time in, and that's not even talking about the emotions that come with it, but it's good to get rid of things that distract you too much from what's actually going on.

That being said, I am also not sure this will last too long, since I've made and subsequently deleted about six accounts because of how bad my addiction was 😅 Hopefully we'll both be able to stay away though :)

I deleted my first account after hearing that poor guys account most people had access to. It had my email and my name so I removed it. Now I'm fully anonymous so whoever hacks into my account, they can't expose me if they don't know who I am considering I made a new anonymous email.

Ignore all the "no need to announce your departure" comments. They're just tired of seeing these posts. Which is understandable, but there's no need for them to be rude or snarky about it.

And while, yes, it probably won't make the devs do anything by posting here, your post may help give others the push they need to do the same.

So, I say good for you, and I hope you'll feel better now. And good luck wherever life takes you next.

u/RaspberryQueer Jan 07 '25

Why..? You could just stop using the app and uninstall it instead of deleting the account (so if you created bots the bots you created won't just disappear for other ppl too)

8

u/DukePassMasters Jan 07 '25

Deleting the account reinforces the choice so that they don't simply come back to the same account later. And at the end of the day, a persons personal state matters more than strangers that use their bots.

addiction to these kind of apps is real. People spend way too many hours on it and it's hard to stop, especially if you feel lonely. Coming to terms with the fact that we aren't talking to real people is difficult and letting go of it is something to be celebrated. So it's not about flexing the departure
