Like others have said, do the research and then do what you feel is best for your fur-family.
Personally, I free-feed dry with the occasional wet food treat.
Lone doesn't seem to like many of the wet food products available... and I've tried a few with her.. she prefers the kibble except when she's not feeling well or like at the moment, isn't drinking a lot of water (and then I switch her to wet to make up for the less drinking). She's very good at drinking a lot of water so long as I make the water spots interesting for her to get to... like up on the top of my duchess, the bathroom vanity unit, under the duchess... etc.. so her not getting water is not usually a problem. The wet food she will touch is usually only the Whiskas brand. They come in little pouches so it's really handy to have some in my cupboard for when I think she's looking a little 'off' which is hardly ever.
I always have a seperate bowl of fresh water beside the dry food as well, but I've NEVER seen her drink out of that one lol (I keep it there just in case lol)
It's really all about the research, what you feel comfortable with, and what your cat/kitten will eat.
