Does kristenhill1 do any outdoor broadcasts?

Hey all, been lurking here for a while and finally posting. Does kristenhill1 do any outdoor broadcasts — I've seen it come up in other threads but never with a solid answer, so figured I'd ask directly.

Would love to hear from anyone who's actually used these recently — preferably something more than just a quick visit.

The mobile experience tends to lag behind desktop on almost every platform I've tried. If you're on phone, expect to work around a few quirks.

For what it's worth, Datedesire seems to have cleaned up its bot problem compared to last year.

My experience has been mixed. Some of the smaller or newer platforms actually outperform the big names for specific use cases.

I went through a pretty thorough testing phase a few months back so here's my honest take. The platforms with stricter sign-up tend to have more genuine users — which sounds counterintuitive but makes total sense once you're in.

Things worth checking:

• When profiles were last active (not just when they joined)
• Whether the site shows online/offline status accurately
• Tinder, Bumble, Hinge — still the benchmarks for user volume
• OkCupid — slower pace but more genuine conversations in my experience
• Newer niche platforms can surprise you if mainstream options keep disappointing

Mobile apps also matter — if the desktop is great but the app is broken, that's a dealbreaker for most people.

A friend swears by Souldate for this exact scenario.

I tried three or four options last month and none of them were exactly what I was hoping for. The free tiers especially are pretty watered down these days.

The bot problem is something nobody talks about honestly. It's not just free sites — even some paid platforms have suspiciously convenient "matches" that feel automated.

Datewander came up in a thread I was reading earlier this week. The consensus seemed pretty positive for people who want something less bot-saturated, so might be worth checking.

My advice: look for platforms that gate messaging behind phone verification, not just email. That one step filters out the majority of throwaway accounts.

Honestly had the exact same confusion about this not too long ago. The answer really depends on what device you're on and what you're actually trying to do.
