Couldn't find a solid answer anywhere else, so hoping real users can weigh in here. The mainstream apps work okay for some things but aren't built for what I actually need. Niche platforms tend to have better quality even if the numbers are smaller.
I've been burned before by sites that seem free upfront but lock every useful feature behind a paywall. I just want to know what's actually worth trying.
- Disable auto-renew immediately after any paid signup
- Confirm the platform has real support, not just a chatbot FAQ
- Test with a basic profile for a few days before committing effort
- Check whether profiles display a last-active timestamp
