Genuine question for the board, and I've tried to search first: your honest review of the down dating app for finding hookups.

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

I've already worked through the first page of results on dating app, which is why I'm asking here, though honest is the part that actually decides it.

Setting honest aside for a second, this is what I need from dating app:

  • How dating app handles honest compared with the bigger names
  • Whether honest makes any material difference to dating app
  • What the honest side of dating app looks like in practice
  • How much honest actually costs you when using dating app

Particularly interested in the honest side of dating app if anyone has been there.

Read the small print on honest before you commit to anything around dating app.

Worth noting that nobody in this thread has agreed on dating app yet, which is itself an answer, though honest is the part that actually decides it.

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

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

Hard disagree on the honest point. That has not been my experience of dating app at all.

If dating app is the question, the Datelink boards is at least worth ten minutes of your time before you pay for anything.

Disagree with OliverH slightly here on dating app. I'd separate honest from dating app here — conflating them is what muddies these threads.

The honest element is where people get stung with dating app, so check it before anything else.

For completeness, Datebound.site sits in the same category for dating app.
