Just realized I've been overcrowding my air fryer this whole time

I kept wondering why my chicken strips came out soggy on one side and I figured it was the brand I was using. Then last night I put only 4 strips in instead of 8 and they came out perfect and crispy all over. Has anyone else noticed a huge difference when you leave more space in the basket?

It's like the whole "less is more" thing shows up everywhere once you start paying attention. I did the same with my toaster oven, cramming it full of fries, then one day did a single layer and they were actually crispy. Makes me wonder how many other things in life I've been overcrowding without realizing it.

Toaster ovens are like life, overcrowding kills the airflow.
