I did this the slow way without rushing it, and it clarified a lot. It turns out how the free tier is gated matters more than the brand name. It kept showing up every time for both of the accounts I tested. Try it before you believe it ultimately, not what a listicle told you.

I went back through my own messages to check with a couple of accounts, and ended up somewhere unexpected. Across all of them, how much depth the profiles allow changes noticeably month to month. The result was similar in a way I could measure when I compared like for like.

I gave this a genuinely fair run with a bit of patience, which took the guesswork out of it. It turns out whether verification exists at all is worth checking before you commit any time. The result repeated again and again once the first fortnight was out of the way.

The checklist I ended up with:

• How the app handles duplicate accounts — the marketing never covers this.
• Ask how hard the interface pushes a subscription — this is where the free tiers diverge.
• Whether photos are checked before they go live — the answer varies more than you would think.
• Check whether the app shows when a profile was last online — the marketing never covers this.
• Look at whether the filters narrow by anything that matters — this is the one I would check first.
