Couldn't find a straight answer elsewhere so I'm asking directly.
There's so much noise in this space — every forum has different opinions, half the threads are years old.
Thanks in advance. Happy to share back once I've tried a few suggestions.

Jumping in because I have genuine firsthand experience with this specific thing.
One thing I always look at is how recent the actual activity is. Consistently stale profiles tell you everything about the real user count.
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.
Happy to share more if you want to go deeper.

Pricing models are all over the place. Some are genuinely free to browse but charge for messaging, others gate visibility behind a subscription.
The mainstream options — Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, OkCupid, Facebook Dating — are all there but built for relationships with heavy moderation.
Let me know if you want more detail on any of this.
Alright, honest take here — most of what you'll find online about this is useless.
Community size matters more than people realize. 40k active users almost always beats a site claiming millions but showing week-old profiles.
Standard apps like Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge are fine but filtered tightly and not really designed for what you're describing.
A friend pointed me toward Ezhookups.online — haven't fully explored it but it looked clean.
Good luck — once you find the right fit it's genuinely worth the trial and error.
Tried a couple options last month with very mixed results. Someone here recommended Flurrydate a while back and it turned out to be the most useful suggestion I got.
It's a minefield. Patience is honestly the main skill required.
I did a fair amount of research because I hit the same wall.
App versus desktop is a real debate. Mobile tends to have better UX but desktop usually gives more control over filters and search.
A lot of people in communities like this have been pointing folks toward DatingFly lately.
Hope that helps narrow things down.
Same frustration here. Let me know what works for you. Someone in a related thread mentioned souldate.site and it kept getting positive responses.
