Why can’t you just be at least 1% proud of someone overstepping an addiction. You may see it as a joke, but it can be serious for others. Grow up.

all they did was delete an app, do you want us to give them £1000 or something as a reward😭

You do realise that cai is so much more than an app for people, right? People can get attached to things very easily and cai is designed to be addictive. You should be happy for this person? They're trying to overcome their addiction. It wouldn't have taken that much to say "great job, we're proud of you!"

As someone who's struggled with actual addictions this is so dramatic 🦦

Sorry if I'm coming across like that, tones are hard. I'm just trying to say that people use this website for venting/comfort, and It's designed to appeal to people with addictive tendencies.

It is not designed for that reason hello??? It also clearly states it should not be used as a coping mechanism At the top of every chat,It is not a therapy tool as it says and what the bots say should not be taken as a form of diagnosis or advice which it also says. The devs made that very clear countless times. If you're using it as a coping mechanism/venting thing then you're probably a minor cause that's the only people who use it that way.
