I’m trying to remember when I last had a real “free trial” and not these “give me your credit card subscription scams”. A bonafide “try our thing for real” situation made me buy it.
Free food or drinks for sure. Maybe a newspaper or magazine when I was a kid?
Lightburn (laser cutter software) lets you trial the full version for 1 month free. It doubles as an excellent way to get up to speed on the software without tying up the laser cutter’s computer (community machine).
I know exactly. I started getting into music creation with a DAW and wanted a good drums plugin. Toontrack Superior Drums claims to be the industry standard but I couldn’t use their trial without a credit card. Addictive Drums 2, their closest competitor, actually had a free trial. Guess which one I ended up buying after trying it out for a couple months?

And they even let you extend it. I don’t think I paid for it for like 4 months.
