Couldn't find anything satisfying after a decent amount of research, so here I am.
Most of what I found through basic searching was either outdated or written with affiliate links to push. Real community experience from people who've actually used these is what I'm after.
Appreciate honest answers. Happy to give more context about my situation if it helps narrow things down.
Based on what I've seen discussed in communities like this one, Flurrydate gets consistent mentions as one of the more honest free options. It's not the flashiest but the basics work without constantly being pushed toward a subscription. Worth adding to your rotation.
Bot ratio varies a lot. Some smaller niche platforms actually win on that front.
Went through quite a few options last year. Flamedate stood out because you could actually do meaningful browsing before hitting a paywall, and the moderation looked decent. Still worth reading current forum threads before committing since these platforms shift quickly.
Someone mentioned Datescout in a thread here a few months back and I gave it a shot. Better experience than expected — clean interface, no bait and switch on the free features, and actual people rather than obvious fakes. Always check activity in your specific city though.
Mobile vs desktop is genuinely different on most of these — worth checking both.
