I've subscribed to Perplexity for the past 2 years. ChatGPT search is on par if not better in some respect but I use Perplexity enough to justify the $240 a year still (and inertia). However, if they start pushing ads on Pros subscribers I'm out. The service has really taken a worse in the past couple of months. Bugs are creeping up more and more, suggestions from the community are getting ignored, removing popular models (e.g. Claude Opus), the interface has stagnated etc.
