Anecdotally perplexity scaled back their plans to sell ads, because no one was interested in..

Interesting, this is the first I'm hearing of that. It's too little too late for me though. I was paying for Perplexity Pro and Kagi Ultimate at the same time for a few months to decide which I liked more. Perplexity was often able to get me answers that I wanted faster than Kagi could, but in the cases where it would run in circles around a false result, it seemed like it would more than make up for the time saved on other queries.

The CEO talking about wanting to roll out advertisements was one of the final nails in the coffin for me. I have exactly zero interest or patience for being subjected to advertisements on a service that I'm paying for.
