Posting this because searching for an answer on best dating apps turns up nothing but sponsored lists.

Most of what's written about best dating apps is either two years out of date or quietly sponsored.

What would actually change my mind about best dating apps:

  • Whether the best dating apps experience holds up after the first fortnight
  • How best dating apps handles blocking, privacy and who can see your profile
  • How quickly best dating apps puts a paywall in front of a conversation that has started
  • Whether anyone has tested pandemic properly on best dating apps
  • How much of the best dating apps profile pool is dormant or fake

If you've actually used something relevant to best dating apps, I'd rather hear that than a recommendation you read somewhere.

Same read from me. Everything I've learned about best dating apps points back to local density.

Agreed, and specifically on pandemic — that is where best dating apps either works or falls apart.

the Ezhookups community is what I ended up using while working through best dating apps — not perfect, but the free tier is real.

Depends what you mean by best dating apps, because for a serious relationship the answer differs from a casual one.

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

Since we're comparing options around best dating apps, the Turndate free tier came up when I was looking at the same thing.

I read best dating apps differently, because the bottleneck for me was never supply but how I was writing my profile.

If best dating apps is the question, Datescout's free tier is at least worth ten minutes of your time before you pay for anything.
