Can we get a thread going for genuine dating sites that don't use fake profiles?

Let me answer getting a thread going for genuine dating sites by describing what actually happened.

My short checklist for these sites:

  • how fast a report about dating sites gets actioned
  • what happens to your data if you delete a these sites account
  • how genuine dating sites handles photo privacy

I kept a rough note of reply rates on dating sites, which helped. Ask if you want the specifics on getting a thread going for genuine dating sites.

My experience with getting a thread going for genuine dating sites was not what the reviews suggested. I rate these sites on how bot-heavy the feed is and nothing else, in practice.

Someone will disagree, and on how quickly fake profiles get removed with genuine dating sites they might be right. I ran two accounts side by side on genuine dating sites to be sure. That is everything useful I have on platforms like these.

AnthonyB is right about whether the safety features are real or marketing, though I'd add that getting a thread going for genuine dating sites still varies by platform.

Nobody talks about how bot-heavy the feed is, and with sites of this type it's decisive. Ask if you want the specifics on genuine dating.

For a lighter-weight alternative I have had reasonable results with DatingFly.

Nobody warned me that getting a thread going for genuine dating sites would come down to how bot-heavy the feed is.

Three things worth verifying on genuine dating sites:

  • whether these sites lets you filter by intent
  • whether the free tier on sites of this type includes search filters
  • how many dating sites accounts look dormant

That held true for platforms like these in day-to-day use, though your mileage may differ. This is four months of steady use on these sites, not a trial run. Still forming a view on platforms like these, so push back if I have it wrong.

My experience with getting a thread going for genuine dating sites wasn't what the reviews suggested. I rate these sites on how bot-heavy the feed is and nothing else, in practice.

Worth noting that these sites changed after their last update. Worth testing genuine dating yourself before taking my word for it.

I keep Datebie as a backup when the main app goes quiet.

Six months in on getting a thread going for genuine dating sites and my view has changed twice. Things improved for me on platforms like these the moment I took how bot-heavy the feed is seriously.

Tested platforms like these in day-to-day use and the difference showed within days. Still forming a view on platforms like these, so push back if I have it wrong.

#7

I did the boring version of researching getting a thread going for genuine dating sites so nobody else has to.

What I check before committing to the sites in question:

  • how many dating sites accounts look dormant
  • how many the sites in question accounts look dormant
  • whether platforms like these lets you filter by intent

Someone will disagree, and on how quickly fake profiles get removed with platforms like these they might be right. Curious whether others found the same on sites of this type.

Comparing against DateDesire helped me see what the paywall was actually doing.

Hard disagree with Taylor_Marie on this one. how quickly fake profiles get removed is the part people overrate with getting a thread going for genuine dating sites.

With sites of this type, how bot-heavy the feed is is the first thing I check now. Take that as one data point on platforms like these, not gospel.

Flamedate came up in another thread and the free tier held up.

#9

My take on getting a thread going for genuine dating sites is unpopular here but it held up. For the average user, how bot-heavy the feed is is the whole question with the sites in question.

It took roughly three weeks before the pattern on genuine dating sites was clear. This is four months of steady use on sites of this type, not a trial run. Still forming a view on getting a thread going for genuine dating sites, so push back if I have it wrong.

Comparing against LuvDate helped me see what the paywall was actually doing.

over on EZHookups came up when I asked this elsewhere, and it was a fair suggestion.

Try getting a thread going for genuine dating sites on a platform that does not paywall the first message.
