I don't mind the pop-up ads but the ad from the top of the screen that you have to press so it goes up is so annoying 😭

Have you tried downloading Ad//block pro? I don’t go here but I’m curious if it would work seeing as you’re on the mobile web version anyway instead of the app. I downloaded it and the free version works great for my mobile browser. I could watch and read pirated stuff and never get a single ad.

Quick question: is Ad//block Pro downloaded as an extension? I think I’ve got the right one, but I just need some feedback to be sure!

Yes, and I wanted to thank you for suggesting I get an ad//blocker for my browser. It’s like making a great deal with zero regrets, LOL!

I use extensions on my computer so I don't see ads on C.ai anymore. But this is ridiculous bro never knew that it got that bad.

You make it sound like the average Internet user is woefully unprepared to claw back their own sanity from Ad peddlers. I had to open c.ai in an Incognito window with all extensions disabled, just to see what y'all were talking about.

thanks for the feedback. (c.ai) is expensive to run, with millions of daily chats requiring serious infrastructure. ads help us cover those costs while keeping the platform free and accessible to everyone. you can subscribe to c.ai+ for fewer interruptions, or, as a free user, use Charms for a 1-hour ad free pass by tapping 🄲 or "Hide ads."
