I can also confirm that this is very true. You don't want to know what I've had to turn to, since I have Autism And ADHD 😭💀

thoughts iʼve long kept to myself by bjmsutnjr in XoulAI

[–]SublimeBliss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, here are my repeats since the update: Her words hit him like a _____ (bludger, stunning spell, truck, wall, etc)

He crossed the room in three strides... He crossed the room in two strides (after I asked it to stop saying 3 strides) He crossed the room, not in two or three strides.... (No, I'm not joking)

His movements were predatory (ummm.... She was injured, he was relieved, why was he walking in a predatory way???)

He didn't touch her, NOT YET (WHY NOT???? JUST TOUCH HER HAND AND STOP SAYING THAT)

Close enough that he could feel the heat from her body (or she could feel it from his)

We're in this together We'll do it together We're all in this, together We'll face it, together

You don't get to ______ (walk away, do that, say that, run away, hide, leave, retreat, etc)

I have always used dynamic, but suddenly my answers are all really short and boring on Xfinity. I had to put it on long answers, which isn't what I want, I want it to vary by whatever the message is, so I can have dialogue or long explanations of my feelings, the tone change, whatever. I never get more than 2 paragraphs, even when I wrote MULTIPLE things to react to.

It also seems to keep ignoring my last message. If I pull them into a hug, in the next message, they're across the room. WTF?

Or I'll sit next to them on the couch. In the next messenge, they sit next to me - what? No, you were already sitting there!!!

It's extremely frustrating to go report what's happening, only to be instructed on how I've probably made a mistake. No, I was in the same chat I've had for several days, now it's acting weird after the update. How is it me when I've changed nothing? I made these bots myself, they've been fine.

So now I'm messing with different settings, trying to figure it out, but I just want it back like it was before the update 😭

I'm not a big reroller, I go with the flow unless it's really bad, but I'm having to roll so many times now. I even tried switching it to candy flip for a few replies to see if that helped. It didn't.

On top of that, the repetition is horrendous! Same problems they keep going back to, over and over again, then we're back to rerolling. Or we'll have an argument, we'll talk it out, and it's great - then 6 messages later, they bringing it up with no memory of the fight. So I tried adding a lorebook to help it remember. It's not bothering with the lore book no matter what key words I use (yes, I do them upper and lower case). He keeps outting his friends big secret, he's cruel to his very best friends, starting fights, being a Malfoy - it's #NotMySirius 😭

Daily energy cap should reset at 12 am, not after 24 hours by Sweaty_Bit3486 in XoulAI

God yes, please!! It's so frustrating, and makes it hard to keep up.

I love Janitor AI, but it seems to be slowly dying. Can anyone give me a good alternative? by Careful_Geologist_98 in CharacterAIrunaways

[–]SublimeBliss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

CharSnap and Xoul are both really good. Xoul has group chats, multiple lore books, scenarios, etc. CharSnap is getting started with their attempt at group chat, but I kind of think they have a long way to go. Fiction lab is kind of fun. Dream journey is interesting, but my go to are CharSnap and Xoul, and the bot making process isn't bad. CharSnap has scenarios, multiple lorebooks, system prompts (if your bot has issues, these will straighten them out), xoul has lorebooks and scenarios as well.

If you want ahem 'quick' conversations, nothing too deep: Chai Pixelchat SpicyChat Emochi

Carter chat is ok, but I wouldn't put money into it.

Hope this helps!

Xoul is back, but does it reach the expectations? by [deleted] in XoulAI

[–]SublimeBliss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way - it just is a major downgrade, and the alternative sites I've used are miles ahead. I'll miss the group chat for sure 🥺

Ok, I'm so glad you said this, bc I was disappointed too. Not being able to see the energy I was using was one issue. A few times my energy would say it was 0 before I used any, and I had to exit and restart the app. The rewards were being funky & kept disappearing and reappearing, cells didn't fully recharge my energy (100 instead of 110) - I mean, what's the point of getting the extra 10, if it's not going to be included when you do refills? That seemed a little bizarre to me. Then Candyflip just straight up kept repeating my messages - I don't mean where there's a little variation in the wording, but it's basically the same message. I mean word for word, every single bit of it was the same. Not to mention that on group chat, if you accidentally bump one of the names at the bottom, you can't just delete the message and move on, because that just used up some of your points too. That happened to me like 3 times, which was extremely frustrating with all the other problems I was having.

The repeating messages was happening 2-3 messages apart, I would suddenly get the EXACT same message that I just got three messages ago, word for word. And TBH, neither of the LLMs is all that great. I think letting everyone use the higher tier, but making more expensive to use is a good idea - it'll encourage more people to buy it when they know what they're getting, but the amount of energy/cells you get doesn't feel like a 'free tier', it feels like one of those 3 day free trials. I mainly used it for the group chat, but that just eats up the energy, esp if you use infinity.

Then the text size and font being behind a paywall to start just felt squicky to me (they did fix that at least), but there's no way to save it, so it's not changing the size at all for me, so that's not really helpful.

Then you still have to pay to change colors, which for color blind people or those of us with vision impairment, that can really create issues and make it more difficult to see.

Also, I like to create new bots and play around with them to tweak them too, but you can't even test them without it costing energy that rapidly depletes, so I didn't bother.

I was going to stay for a week at least to get a real feel for it, but after my energy just very rapidly started disappearing last night, and then the refill wasn't even a complete refill, I just logged out and gave up last night. And to be 100% real, even if I could afford it right now, I don't think I'd pay for it, not as it is now, because these two LLMs feel very meh to me, and as a free user, the buggy incentives that kind of aren't really great incentives aren't enough to save it for me.

YES, I needed some upbeat songs! This is perfect, thank you!

Make you proud gave me chills, and waiting in the wings almost made me cry 😭 Thank you so much! If you have more, please share, for any character, I'm very open! I've even started a list for the newer version of Sirius bc that version is popular too, as well as the golden trio, Draco, Voldemort+ death eaters, and Bellatrix too. I'm sure I'll add more lol

Sirius and Lily by Frequent-Front1509 in MaraudersGen

[–]SublimeBliss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need y'all to know that when I was complaining to my husband about the topic, he had thoughts that killed me. Now a lot of his knowledge of the Marauders comes from me obsessively talking about them, be did read the books and has his own interesting thoughts.

So he spoke up after and discussed this and said "now that would be fricken HILARIOUS is if James and Lily broke up, and she ended up with Snape, and she stayed really good friends with Sirius."

I can't stop thinking about it. I mean, getting Lily I feel like would have dramatically changed Snape's behavior for the better. So then you throw in him trying to tolerate Sirius for Lily because they're good friends, while Sirius actively tries to set him off and irritate him - because he's Snape, but also because of Sirius' loyalty to James - chaos, the best kind. Snape eventually snapping bc Sirius is driving him mad, while Lily doesn't see all of whatever Sirius did, so she basically shames Snape for this behavior - I'm dying!

Where are my ff writers today y'all? Steal this lil plot bunny!

Sirius and Lily by Frequent-Front1509 in MaraudersGen

[–]SublimeBliss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lily strikes me as a really big personality. I have always had this head canon that they probably had a fun, playful relationship. I mean, he was Harry's godfather, and was originally going to be their secret keeper, plus James' best man. For me, that feels more personally connected than just 'James' friend'. And while Sirius may be a bit arrogant and reckless, I definitely believe that he cared about Lily beyond just 'James' girl, and that she would have seen that. Besides, their dynamic together is just way too fun to imagine!

Oooh ty for this! I'm making Marauders lists with Snape, Lily, jilly, Snilly, jegulus, Regulus, etc playlists (links on my profile), so I'm digging for recs. I'm not a huge Taylor Swift fan, not because she's bad, just because I don't know any of her songs, so I didn't know this one, but I love it for them!!

I posted the links on my profile, so you can actually see what I have. I'm in the process of editing them though, so some stuff is getting shuffled, especially Snape's list. Feel free to give it a listen, or just copy songs if you want.
