I keep seeing vague answers on other forums so figured I'd ask people who actually know.
The free tiers on most of what I've tried are basically useless — you get just enough to see real people are there, then hit a wall the moment you try to message anyone.
Safety and privacy are big concerns for me. I don't want to hand over personal info to some sketchy platform and regret it later.
Appreciate advice from people with actual firsthand experience.
