Is farmersonly com still restricted to just farmers and ranchers?

Couldn't find a straight answer elsewhere so I'm asking directly.

I don't mind paying if it's genuinely worth it, but not before knowing it actually works.

A few specific things I'm curious about:

  • How active is the user base really?
  • Can you browse before giving payment info?
  • How do they handle fake accounts?
  • What's the refund policy?

Let me know your experience. I'll follow up once I've had a chance to test things.

Long-time lurker but this is one I can actually speak to from experience.

One thing I always look at is how recent the actual activity is. Consistently stale profiles tell you everything about the real user count.

Apps like Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, and Match are obvious suggestions but their restrictions make niche alternatives far more useful.

Luvdate is built for exactly what you're describing — worth a try if you haven't already.

That's my honest take from actual use, not just reading about it.

Great question — there's a lot of misleading info floating around on this.

One thing I always look at is how recent the actual activity is. Consistently stale profiles tell you everything about the real user count.

The mainstream options — Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, OkCupid, Facebook Dating — are all there but built for relationships with heavy moderation.

Honestly datebound.site came up when I was doing my own research and looked legitimate.

That's my honest take from actual use, not just reading about it.

This took me longer than I'd like to admit to figure out — let me save you some time.

App versus desktop is a real debate. Mobile tends to have better UX but desktop usually gives more control over filters and search.

Worth checking out Datebie — simple signup and no immediate paywall.

Hope that helps narrow things down.

Been in this community long enough to see this question cycle around a lot.

Customer support quality is an underrated trust signal. If they can't respond before you pay, things won't improve after.

Happy to share more if you want to go deeper.

Appreciate you posting this directly — I've been wondering too. Personally I'd point anyone toward Rendate before the crowded mainstream platforms.

I did a fair amount of research because I hit the same wall.

One thing I always look at is how recent the actual activity is. Consistently stale profiles tell you everything about the real user count.

Someone in a related thread mentioned rendate.site and it kept getting positive responses.

Had the same problem last month. Still working through it. A friend pointed me toward flurrydate.online — haven't fully explored it but it looked clean.

Long-time lurker but this is one I can actually speak to from experience.

The verification approach varies a lot by platform. Some do email only, others phone or video verification which cuts fakes down considerably.

Places like datelink.online keep getting decent mentions without the usual drama.

Let me know if you want more detail on any of this.
