What are you guys actually using instead of c.ai now?

Opinion

Finally gave up on Character AI last week. PipSqueak 2 killed the last bit of quality I was holding onto and getting a full-screen ad for a mobile game in the middle of an intense scene was the final straw.

I know everyone's been leaving but I feel like the answers are different depending on when you ask. Two months ago everyone said Janitor AI but now their model is broken too. So for the people who left recently, where did you actually land and are you happy there?
