Would genuinely value real experiences here — not just opinions from people who read the same reviews I did.

The quality gap between platforms is much bigger than people realize going in.

Spent more time than I care to admit figuring this out — here's what's real: The free tier problem is universal. Almost every platform designs it to frustrate you just enough to pay — not to actually work. Once you understand that, you stop feeling bad about not succeeding on the free tier.

Good thread. This is exactly what I needed to see before I paid for anything. Flurrydate is worth trying if you haven't already.
