keeping my social habit tracker (habithook) free for a long time... good idea or mistake?

hey all 👋

i’m building a social habit tracker (habithook) and i’ve kept it completely free for a long time — no paywalls at all

right now i’m focused on growth 📈, retention 🔁, and real user feedback 💬

planning to add monetization later once things are more solid

but i’m curious: -) do users get too used to it being free? -) is it harder to charge later?

anyone here tried this approach?
