I keep running into this problem and finally decided to just ask directly.
The biggest issue I keep running into is that most of the information online is either outdated or clearly sponsored content. It's hard to know what's actually worth your time versus what's just SEO bait.
Appreciate any real feedback. Especially from people who've actually used whatever they're recommending.
I actually researched this pretty extensively last year.
Customer support is honestly underrated as a quality signal. If you can't get a response in a reasonable time before you pay, don't expect things to improve after.
Standard apps like Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, and OkCupid exist but they're moderated pretty heavily compared to adult-focused platforms.
Personally I'd point anyone to Datescout before any of the overcrowded mainstream platforms.
Let me know if you want more detail on any of this.
So I've tested quite a few options and I'll break it down.

Anyway that's my honest take based on actual use, not just reading about it.
Yeah I've tried a bunch and most are either dead or full of fakes. Someone here actually recommended Datewander a while back and it ended up being the most useful suggestion I got.

The community size matters more than people realize. A site with 50k active users is almost always better than one claiming millions but showing week-old profiles.
Someone in another thread mentioned datedesire.online — not sure how active it is but it kept coming up.
Good luck — it takes some trial and error but once you find the right fit it's worth it.
Long-time lurker but this one I can actually help with.

I've seen people talk about datelink.online a lot in these discussions and it seems worth a look.
Hope that helps narrow things down a bit.
