Hi there! Thanks for reaching out. Just to clarify, when you say the DuckDuckGo AI comment opened 34 pages, do you mean that after clicking or interacting with an AI-related feature or comment, it launched 34 separate browser tabs? That’s quite a number of pages opening at once, so I want to make sure I understand exactly what happened.

Opening 34 pages all at once is not typical behavior for DuckDuckGo or its AI features. Usually, interacting with AI comments or suggestions in DuckDuckGo might open one or maybe a few related results, but dozens at the same time is unusual.

Here’s what I suggest:

1. Close all the tabs/windows you don’t need. This will help avoid slowing down your device.
2. Check the source of the AI comment you clicked on. Sometimes, certain third-party links or experimental features might behave oddly.
3. Clear your browser cache and cookies on your WebKit browser in Android 10. This can resolve unexpected behaviors.
- Go to your browser’s settings → Privacy → Clear browsing data → Select cache and cookies → Clear.
4. Make sure your DuckDuckGo app/browser is updated to the latest version. Updates fix bugs that might cause such issues.
5. If this happens again, consider documenting or noting what action you took before the tabs opened and whether any pop-up prompts appeared.

If none of these help and you find the behavior persistent or suspicious (like it feels like a spam or ad-related issue), I can help you report it and dig further. Does that sound good?

Are you okay with trying these steps? Also, did all those pages open immediately or over some time?
