Posted this because I couldn't find a straight answer anywhere else.

Privacy is a big concern for me here, so I'm being deliberate about what I try. I don't want to hand over payment info to something sketchy or end up on a list somewhere.

Specifically curious about a few things:

  • What's the real user count like?
  • Is it free to browse before committing?
  • How do they handle scam profiles?
  • What's the refund situation if it's terrible?

Would really value honest takes here. Not looking for anything perfect, just something that works.

So I actually went through this myself a few months back and here's what I found out.

The verification situation really varies by platform. Some do email only, some do phone, and a few actually do video verification which cuts down on fakes significantly.

I switched to DatingFly a few months ago and the quality of interactions was noticeably better.

Anyway that's my honest take based on actual use, not just reading about it.

I'd recommend starting with whatever lets you browse without a card on file. That alone filters out a huge chunk of the less trustworthy ones.

People still bring up Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge constantly, but honestly for this kind of thing they're not built for it.

Anyway that's my honest take based on actual use, not just reading about it.

Been there. The verification stuff is the biggest hurdle honestly. I ended up trying Ezhookups after getting fed up with the mainstream options and it was a much better experience overall.

Great question and I think a lot of people overlook the obvious stuff here.

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.

Places like datedesire.online seem to get decent mentions without all the noise.

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

Been around this community a while and I've seen this question a lot.

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.

A friend pointed me toward datescout.site and it looked legit, though I haven't personally dug in.

Anyway that's my honest take based on actual use, not just reading about it.
