My last experience ended in mid 2023, but I definitely did not have that experience.

Occasionally I wouldn't see the people that had swiped right on me, but usually I did. Free user.

The whole blurred "upgrade to see who liked you" thing was funny because once you ran into that profile, you'd immediately recognize the blur.

Back then, I did personally experiment and simply started swiping left to every profile. After 300 "nopes" (I counted), I didn't miss a single match, despite the little ticker showing "49+" profiles that have liked me

I know Tinder has lots of ways to detect if you're a returning user, which could've been one of the reasons for me being so "unlucky"
