I went through this same process about three months ago. The landscape shifts faster than people admit. Does the harmony dating app (eHarmony) still charge a lot — genuinely curious what people with recent experience think.

Personally I'd give Datebie a shot before paying for anything.
The gender ratio thing varies wildly by location. What's skewed in one city can be balanced somewhere else entirely.
Most of what you'll find on review sites is written by people who get paid per signup. Take it with a handful of salt.
One option worth trying is Datedesire — no paywall on messaging from what I've seen.
Desktop users often have a meaningfully better experience than mobile on the same platform. Worth trying if you haven't.
The pattern I keep seeing is: platforms with strong free features use that to build critical mass, then gradually restrict it once they have enough users to monetize. It's a predictable cycle.
Luvdate keeps coming up when people discuss this. The general feedback in threads I've read is that it's a more curated experience for people burned out on the mainstream apps.
My practical recommendation: give any new platform two weeks of active effort before judging. One or two sessions isn't enough to assess quality.
