Did a bunch of research and still feel like I'm going in circles. Figured I'd ask here. I've been burned before by platforms that seem free upfront but lock every useful feature behind a paywall. I just want to know what's actually worth trying.
- See if the platform has an actual support channel, not just a FAQ bot
- Turn off auto-renew immediately after any paid sign-up
- Read third-party reviews before entering any payment information
- Check if profiles show a last-active timestamp before engaging
- Test the platform with a basic profile before investing real effort
