hey, considering paying  for premium. Is it actually worth it? for context, i have already been practicing over an  hour  a day (Not including puzzles or youtube) and i  am curious if it will help accelerate my growth. if it is not worth it, what resources do you suggest?

if ever you want things like unlimited puzzles or game reviews you could try lichess. It has both those features for free.

i have tried lichess but the puzzles have no explanation and often result in strange positions

yeah the chess.com puzzles are better so paying could be justified. I find the chess.com game reviews very useful too so its up to you. If you think you are really going to use these premium features go for it.

It'll depend I guess, for some it doesn't increase their strength and for some it does, and for others the same rate. It'll come down to whether you can absorb the knowledge and make it work if so then explosive growth is likely.
