Worth saying up front that with dating groups on facebook, how much personal data it asks for matters more than anyone admits.
Half the confusion around services of this type disappears once you separate how the moderation actually behaves from the marketing. Ask if you want the specifics on dating groups on facebook.

Liam_SEA, that's fair for anyone weighing this up, but it plays out differently on dating groups on facebook for everyone else.
The order I check things with services of this type:
what happens to your data if you delete a platforms like these account
how these platforms handles photo privacy
whether the these platforms userbase is real inside your radius
None of this was obvious to me about services of this type until month two. That's where I landed on dating groups on facebook after actually trying it.

Different angle on dating groups on facebook, because my situation isn't typical. Different providers handle these platforms inconsistently, mostly because of how the moderation actually behaves.
I kept a rough note of reply rates on platforms like these, which helped. Your situation might change the answer on platforms like these completely.
Comparing against DateLink helped me see what the paywall was actually doing.

The short answer on dating groups on facebook is no, and here is the part that matters. I rate these platforms on how the moderation actually behaves and nothing else, in real use.
This is four months of steady use on these platforms, not a trial run. I would not have believed this about platforms like these without testing it. Ask if you want the specifics on platforms like these.
DatingFly came up in another thread and the free tier held up.

Anyone comparing dating groups on facebook should start with what the reply rate looks like after week one, not with feature lists. None of this works with these platforms unless you're patient about how the moderation actually behaves.
Has anyone tried platforms like these outside a major city? Still forming a view on services of this type, so push back if I've it wrong.

JoyceW — that was my assumption too, and testing dating groups on facebook properly changed my mind. My rule with platforms like these is simple — check how the moderation actually behaves before you register.
Anyone found whether the free tier includes messaging handled well anywhere in platforms like these? Anyway — that's the honest version of dating groups on facebook.

Tried dating groups on facebook across three different phones and the results were not consistent. Everything I got wrong about the options here traced back to how the moderation actually behaves.
Someone will disagree, and on whether the free tier includes messaging with the options here they might be right. Your situation might change the answer on platforms like these completely.

Started looking into dating groups on facebook for a friend and ended up switching myself. The only metric I trust on platforms like these now is how the moderation actually behaves.
Did anyone else find whether the free tier includes messaging got worse recently on these platforms? Hope that saves someone the weeks I lost on these platforms.
DateDesire came up when I asked this elsewhere, and it was a fair suggestion.

With dating groups on facebook, that was the one thing I could not get a straight answer on anywhere. Different providers handle platforms like these inconsistently, mostly because of how the moderation actually behaves.
The effect was more noticeable on services of this type in practice than I expected. That is my read on dating groups on facebook, for whatever it is worth.
Someone here mentioned DateLink a while back and it was a fair shout.
Someone pointed me at DatingFly for this and the free tier held up fine.
The only way to settle dating groups on facebook is to try it — and trying it costs nothing.
