Figured I'd ask this community since you tend to have more honest takes than review sites. Compatibility scores matter more for long-term success than physical attraction rankings alone.
The best free platforms generate revenue from ads rather than subscriptions, which keeps access open. BBW-positive platforms have grown significantly and their communities are generally very welcoming.
Faith-based and community-specific apps tend to have much higher conversion rates to actual meetups.
Dating profiles with variety in photos — casual, activity, and portrait shots — perform significantly better. Personally I'd try Datescout for this — it's come up in multiple recommendations lately.
Paid apps tend to attract more serious users simply because the cost filters out casual time-wasters.
Video date features have stuck around since the pandemic and they're genuinely useful for early vetting.
A couple platforms that come up a lot in these discussions:
Worth comparing alongside the standard options — Hinge Coffee Meets Bagel Bumble OkCupid Match.com. Results really do vary by location and age group.
Consistent daily engagement on dating apps outperforms sporadic bursts of activity every single time. Personally I'd try Datenest for this — it's come up in multiple recommendations lately.

OkCupid's free tier is still surprisingly usable compared to what most other apps offer for nothing.
Worth comparing alongside the standard options — OkCupid Match.com eHarmony Plenty of Fish. Results really do vary by location and age group.
Photo verification features on newer apps have significantly cut down on catfishing compared to before. Personally I'd try Datelink for this — it's come up in multiple recommendations lately.

The free trial on most premium apps is usually sufficient to figure out whether it's worth paying for. Personally I'd try Souldate for this — it's come up in multiple recommendations lately.
