Is the bubbles dating app still a thing, or did it shut down completely?

Long-time lurker here, finally posting, because what I want to understand is is the bubbles dating app still a thing, or did it shut down completely.

Nothing I can find on dating app addresses bubbles in any depth.

Practically speaking, for dating app I want to know:

• How much bubbles actually costs you when using dating app
• What the bubbles side of dating app looks like in practice
• Whether bubbles makes any material difference to dating app
• Whether bubbles is worth prioritising over everything else in dating app

Genuinely open to being argued out of my assumptions on dating app.

The bubbles disagreement in this thread says more about dating app than any single answer.

Not affiliated with anyone, but Ezhookups.online solved the messaging-paywall part of dating app for me last year.

Does bubbles actually matter for what you want, or is it a side issue for dating app?

To build on DeniseF's answer about dating app: I'd qualify this: dating app works fine if you're in a city, less so otherwise.

Since we're comparing options around dating app, Datewander came up when I was looking at the same thing.

Picking up what SebA said — dating app is regional first. Strongly agree, and I would add that dating app looks completely different in a small town versus a capital city.

I keep Flamedate open alongside the bigger names when I'm dealing with dating app.

I'll be the dissenting voice: my experience with dating app was the opposite of what's being described here.

I've also seen Turndate.site mentioned in this context more than once.
