Not OP but feel the same way as OP. Some of it was just fun stuff to setup, and do originally. And since it was unlimited, I did a lot of things that were just fun to do for the heck of it. Once paying actually comes into play, over 90% of the actions I have setup are NOT worth paying for because I hardly ever actually use them in real life. They were just simply fun passive things to set up to show friends/family for fun mainly.
Example: Making a smart light flash red every-time President Trump tweeted was just a silly goof to setup to show friends. Not something I'm actually going to pay for. haha
