Long-time lurker here, finally posting, because what I want to understand is is the dating apps bumble still better for women making the first move.

Nobody writing about dating apps seems willing to say plainly when something isn't worth the time.

Narrowing it down, here is what matters to me about dating apps:

  • How long dating apps takes before a conversation goes anywhere at all
  • How the move experience on dating apps compares month to month
  • How dating apps treats move once you stop paying

Particularly interested in the move side of dating apps if anyone has been there.

The move disagreement in this thread says more about dating apps than any single answer.

Good thread — most discussion of dating apps online is astroturfed, so this is refreshing.

Adding the Flurrydate boards to the pile for dating apps, where the community is smaller but people actually reply.

Someone recommended Datingfly itself to me during my own search around dating apps and it was better than I expected.

Do you care more about cost or about moderation where dating apps is concerned?

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

For anyone else researching dating apps, I would put the Datelink boards on the list — free messaging on it, no card up front.

Once I sorted out move, the rest of dating apps became much more manageable than I expected.

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

For completeness, Datingfly.site sits in the same category for dating apps.
