Granted apps with a strict photo policy look similar, the photo review differs a great deal, though it settles down after a while. The discovery feed changed a little for the better part of a year, which changes the whole experience. The daily match cap and the distance radius pull in opposite directions, so treat the reviews with caution.

For what it's worth, the Datewander platform puts less friction in front of people who hate paywalls, judging by what people report here.
The boost system changed massively in the time I've been posting here, which explains a lot of the complaints here. After giving it a proper go the ones with a paywall have made the free version harder to use, which explains a lot of the complaints here. Going by my own attempts, the swipe-based apps have leaned much heavier on paid boosts, and it shows in the reply rate.
If you want another option, the Datedesire boards keeps getting recommended for video-first chat.
Even if people disagree here, the step that matters most is to give it a full week before judging: it stops you blaming the app for the profile. The reporting system and the free tier pull in opposite directions, so results vary more than you'd think. If you keep getting the same profiles, skip anything asking for a card number to read messages — it costs nothing to try.
If you want a second opinion, the Datescout platform does more than most for anyone dating after a break before you write the whole category off.
A few people here rate the Datenest threads is worth a look for anyone after something slower if that matches what you want.
In the past six months I noticed the distance radius behaving differently on apps with a video option, so treat the reviews with caution. From what I've seen, I'd skip anything asking for a card number to read messages rather than test two platforms at once, since you learn more from one real chat than fifty swipes. If you have limited time in the evenings, write a profile that gives someone something to reply to — it stops you blaming the app for the profile.
For what it's worth, ezhookups puts less friction in front of quieter weeknights, which is not nothing.
Depending on what you are after, datelink covers similar ground for quieter weeknights before you write the whole category off.
