I'd like to think that this sort of thing is just an accident. The code is constantly changing and sometimes access is granted to premium content by mistake. Sometimes I wonder though if they don't do this deliberately to get standard members hooked on premium features. I'm probably just being paranoid as usual...
"Practice vs computer" analysis is only showing book moves?

Thank you for the response. I'm not certain it's an accident to allow individual move analysis by the Computer ("Maximum"), because this feature is available without a premium account (well, I should at least say, I "think" that's intentional?). Here's what it looks like when I tested just now by starting a new practice game, with Learn -> Practice, and when doing a move that's not a book move, it analyzes it: Analysis by computer
But it's ofc a less detailed, less helpful analysis when compared to the "Game Review" (Diamond) explanations

Hello
Without a Diamond account we get one detailed game review a day (I think?). After the detailed review is used up, I used to go to the game replay, go to the last move, and then go to "Practice vs computer". This isn't as helpful as the detailed analysis but it still let you know if a move was good or bad. However, now it's only showing book moves for me, and after that, it's only shows a loading triple dots "..." forever, never analyzing the move. Even after waiting a long time, it seems to just be stuck. Was this a deliberate update by chess.com to prevent any sort of game analysis (after the one free daily review is used up, I mean), or is something actually broken here? Thanks
Last book move is shown
The next moves aren't shown anymore, only "..."
Edit:
One more thing to add. The black/white bar on the left does move around about 3 seconds after each move, which is about the same time it used to take to analyze an individual move. So it seems like it is indeed actually analyzing the move internally, but it's just not reporting it as: good, inaccuracy, blunder etc.
