Has anyone tried the 50 dating app?

Done a lot of research already but wanted to cross-reference with real user experiences. Smaller regional platforms often have better gender ratios than the global apps in smaller cities.

International dating apps have improved dramatically — built-in translation is genuinely usable now. Profile quality matters more than which platform you choose — a well-written bio beats a hundred passive swipes.

Safety considerations I keep in mind:

• Separate email addresses dedicated to dating activity is just good basic digital hygiene.
• Use a Google Voice number instead of your real number when you're still getting to know someone new.
• Screen recording during video chats is a real concern — keep identifying personal details off screen.
• Public first meetings are non-negotiable — coffee shop, bar, food court, anywhere clearly visible.
