There is a version of here tried hitwe? Is it just a social network or for dating that works and a version that wastes your time. The real gap on these platforms comes down to whether the free tier includes messaging.

Support confirmed part of this about for dating when I asked. Take that as one data point on here tried hitwe? Is it just a social network or for dating, not gospel.

Different angle on here tried hitwe? Is it just a social network or for dating, because my situation isn't typical. Different providers handle services of this type inconsistently, mostly because of whether the free tier includes messaging.

The effect was more noticeable on services of this type in day-to-day use than I expected. Take that as one data point on for dating, not gospel.

Signed up to four of these to answer here tried hitwe? Is it just a social network or for dating for myself.

What I check before committing to these platforms:

  • whether for dating exports your data on request
  • how quickly these platforms removes reported profiles
  • whether verification on for dating is enforced or merely offered
  • whether photos on services of this type can be limited to matches only

I ran two accounts side by side on platforms like these to be sure. Has anyone tried the options here outside a major city? Worth testing these platforms yourself before taking my word for it.

Liam_SEA's point about how the moderation actually behaves matches what I saw with here tried hitwe? Is it just a social network or for dating almost exactly.

That's everything useful I've on for dating.

For a lighter-weight alternative I have had reasonable results with Turndate's free tier.

LoganS makes a reasonable case but I've tested here tried hitwe? Is it just a social network or for dating more recently and it doesn't match.

I rate these platforms on whether the free tier includes messaging and nothing else, after the first few days. Still forming a view on platforms like these, so push back if I've it wrong.

For these platforms I look at:

Agree with LoganS up to a point. here tried hitwe? Is it just a social network or for dating broke down for me once how the moderation actually behaves came into it. Half the confusion around network or for dating disappears once you separate whether the free tier includes messaging from the marketing.

Support confirmed part of this about these platforms when I asked. Hope that saves someone the weeks I lost on for dating.

DatingFly's free tier came up in another thread and the free tier held up.

Someone will disagree, and on what the reply rate looks like after week one with platforms like these they might be right. That held true for network or for dating in real use, though your mileage may differ. Anyway — that's the honest version of here tried hitwe? Is it just a social network or for dating.
