Tried preheating my air fryer for 5 minutes before putting fries in and they finally came out crispy instead of soggy

I was getting so frustrated with limp fries every time until I read a comment on a random blog that said the key is letting the basket get fully hot first, so I tried it last night and now I'm mad I wasted 3 months of bad fries anyone else skip this step?

Wait, is a slightly soggy fry really worth getting that worked up over? I mean, cool you found a trick that works, but 3 months of "bad fries" sounds a little dramatic.

Yeah @faithrodriguez you say that until you bite into a perfect crispy fry and realize you've been settling for less this whole time. It's not dramatic it's a matter of principle, potatoes deserve better.
