This has been on my radar for a while — wanted real user opinions rather than review site filler. Traditional dating websites with long-form profiles attract a more serious and committed user base.
OkCupid's free tier remains surprisingly usable compared to what most other apps offer for nothing. Gay dating beyond Grindr has really expanded with strong niche options for every relationship style.
Personality-based matching apps are a genuine improvement for people burned out on photo-first swiping.
Platforms I've been comparing:
- HER
- Lesly
- Scissr
