  11. [R13] Kemo Pro 1/5 · US THE WORST: I talked to customer service several times all they do is lie!!!! It’s been over a year now. They said they would send me a replacement for mines because it wouldn’t capture anything, and also even when I try speaking to someone on the camera no one can hear me. You even have to pay for a subscription. DO NOT BUY NOT WORTH IT $30 FOR A SUBSCRIPTION NO THANK YOU!

  17. [R67] Google Chrome 1/5 · US New Update: This new update is infuriating. I don’t want Gemini at the bottom of my page, or anywhere near me. I don’t want the search and tabs bars to be disjointed. The fact we cannot return Chrome to how it was before the update, or remove Gemini from our bar!, is awful. Please give us the option to return back to the previous version of Chrome.

Or suggests words that pop up and have no relevance and interrupts my train of thought that wastes my time. I feel like it’s gathering information from me so that it can “learn” but I don’t feel it’s my responsibility to be a teacher to t
  19. [R83] Google Chrome 5/5 · US AI My new bestie: Try it. You can develop a conversation that will drive you toward an in-depth and complete answer. AI has so much more than you think it will, even a sense of humor!
