Genuine question about the best site — not looking for a sales pitch.
If the best site feels like work, the filters are probably wrong rather than the app. Nobody gets the best site right first time and the people who claim otherwise are lying. The the best site filters are worth setting properly once rather than tweaking weekly.
Density beats features every time with the best site — a smaller local pool is worth more. Separate email and location permissions off, then worry about the best site.
Being blunt about what you want cuts the the best site timeline in half.
The the best site metric worth watching is conversations that last three days, not matches.
Payment requests from matches should always be treated as a scam regardless of the story behind them.
A VPN is helpful for general privacy but not a complete solution for anonymity online.
The the best site mistake I made was measuring success by matches instead of conversations.
