Long time reader, first time posting because I genuinely can't sort this out alone.
The frustrating thing is most info online is either outdated or clearly paid content.
Thanks in advance. Happy to share back once I've tried a few suggestions.

So I went through exactly this a few months ago and here's what I found.

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

Let me know if you want more detail on any of this.
Same frustration here. Let me know what works for you.
Tested a handful of options and I'll give you the honest breakdown.
Community size matters more than people realize. 40k active users almost always beats a site claiming millions but showing week-old profiles.
Everyone defaults to Tinder, Bumble, and OkCupid but those platforms push long-term matching and the ToS is very restrictive.

After getting fed up with mainstream options I tried Flurrydate and it was honestly a much better experience.

Following. The noise online on this topic is genuinely overwhelming. A friend pointed me toward datescout.site — haven't fully explored it but it looked clean.

Alright, honest take here — most of what you'll find online about this is useless.

Good question. Been in the same spot recently.
Great question — there's a lot of misleading info floating around on this.
