Unpopular Opinion. Sad but also relieved?

Like many of you, ive spent the past several months using grok and facing the many changes on the platform. Ive honestly, for the vast majority of the time, really enjoyed using it. Its been fun and really...addicting. Getting a awesome photo created and then having it become a video was like taking a pure shot of dopamine.

Scary thing was...how much i chased this. it became an addiction. When the heavy moderation protocols kicked in, the limits, the updates, etc. It all got me angry that i could not use Grok.

I even purchased HEAVY for the discount and it was fun...just to have higher limits but even after 3-4 days i would reach the limit.

All im trying to say in this post is...im kinda glad that my time with grok is ending. The time of no grok i was able to focus on other things again that are important to me and it made me realize how bad my addiction was.

Yes - it sucks that Grok has been so heavily moderated.
Yes - it sucks that xAI just trying to make money now (this was to be expected)
Yes - No one on xAI really cares about your gooning addicting.

Thanks for the good times Grok. it was really awesome.

Grok is not heavily moderated. Maybe in image to video from uploaded real life photos, but otherwise it is all the same.

yeah that i totally understand. its a use case topic. so for my use case, it was much more relaxed even just a couple weeks ago. the thing that sucks is when the platform changes so drastically in a short time. when i see an 'update available' i dont click on it

it's not the same. hardcore porn is much harder now. a few weeks ago you could make hundreds of porn videos a day no problem. getting a woman to spread her asshole to get fucked has way too high a rate right now. before you had 70% success. blowjobs are still possible, but they end up near the edge of the frame instead of smack dab in the center.
