## What
Several related tweaks to the subscription paywall shown before a user
subscribes:
1. **Remove the Balance stat** from the top stat card.
2. **Mobile dismiss (X)** replacing the bottom "Continue for free"
button on small screens (when the free plan is available).
3. **Support button** when the paywall *can't* be skipped.
4. **Copy updates** to the social-proof slider.
## 1. Remove the Balance stat
The Balance column showed summed account balances per currency (e.g.
`58.031 MXN 65 US$`). As a variable-length, multi-currency string it
overflowed the stat card on mobile and broke the four-column layout. The
remaining stats (Accounts, Transactions, Categories) are short integer
counts, so it now reads as a clean three-column row.
- `SubscriptionController@getUserStats`: also drops the
`balancesByCurrency` computation — which ran an **N+1 query** (one
`AccountBalance` lookup per account) — and the never-rendered
`automationRulesCount`.
## 2. Mobile dismiss (X)
The "Continue for free" escape (shown only when `canUseFreePlan`) now
renders on **mobile** as a dismiss **X** fixed to the top-right corner
instead of a full-width bottom button, matching the common
mobile-paywall pattern. Same 5s delayed fade-in, same action (continue
on the free plan). On **desktop (md+)** the bottom button is unchanged.
Reuses the app's `MobileBackButton` treatment (44px target, rounded
pill, border/shadow/backdrop-blur) for legibility.
## 3. Support escape hatch (`!canUseFreePlan`)
When the user has **no** free-plan escape, the paywall previously
offered no way out. It now shows a subtle **help/support** affordance in
the same slots the free-plan escape uses — bottom button on desktop,
top-right corner on mobile. It fades in slightly later than the
free-plan escape (**7s vs 5s**) and is deliberately low-key (muted
ghost, no pill) so it doesn't compete with the subscribe CTA. It opens
the existing `SupportDialog` (join the community / email support) — the
same one behind the user-menu "Support" entry.
The two escapes are mutually exclusive per page load, so the free-button
timer collapses into one `escapeVisible` timer whose delay depends on
`canUseFreePlan`.
## 4. Copy updates
Shortened the social-proof lines (`taking control of their finances` →
`trusting us`, etc.), bumped the user count to `2,500+ users`, slightly
reduced the proof icon. `lang/es.json` updated to match.
## QA
Real browser QA across all four states (see Demo), each ending by
exercising the actual action:
- **With free plan** → the X (mobile) / "Continue for free" (desktop)
navigates to `/dashboard`.
- **Without free plan** → the "Need help?" button opens the support
modal (Join the community / Email support).
No console errors from the paywall.
