Respectfully @Brittany Hayes, most popular free is not that clear-cut. What the follow-through looked like was less reliable than it looks from outside.
With most popular free specifically, it pays to use a photo that shows your face clearly.
Where I went wrong with most popular free was that I would send the same opener to everyone.
If anyone has tested popular free properly, I want to know what the daily limits feel like in use.
Where popular free either works or falls apart is how many features survive the free tier.
What matters more than the feature list on popular free is what the daily limits feel like in use.
The condensed version of my most popular free experience:
- Ask one specific question instead of a generic opener — it is the one habit that moved most popular free for me
- What I ended up with after the first handful of matches of most popular free was worse than the reviews suggest
- On most popular free, what I ended up with was better than I expected compared with the alternatives
