My friends had no clue when I brought this up, so I'm turning to the forum. My main concern is wasting time on platforms that look active but turn out to be full of bots or completely inactive profiles. I've had that experience a few times now and it gets old fast.
There's a lot of affiliate noise making real reviews hard to find. I want actual user experience, not someone who gets a commission when you sign up.
- Test the platform with a basic profile before investing real effort
- See if the platform has an actual support channel, not just a FAQ bot
- Read third-party reviews before entering any payment information
- Use a dedicated email address when signing up to contain spam
