so like im curious about how people approach this do you actually buy the product yourself first and then review it or do you just read a bunch of other reviews and base your opinion on those.Because if youre actually buying stuff to review then what do you do with it after youre done reviewing it like do you keep it do you return it do you sell it or just donate it somewhere.Also im wondering what are the main things you focus on when youre writing a review like what matters most to you when youre deciding if something is worth buying or not. For example like if youre reviewing a vpn do you test the speeds do you check the support do you look at the privacy policy do you test it on different devices or what and for like physical products are you looking at build quality durability value for money how long it lasts compared to competitors or something else. Id love to hear what your process is because i feel like theres gotta be some stuff that separates a good review from a bad one and i want to know what people actually prioritize when theyre giving their honest opinion on something
