Has anyone used the sexchat123 platform for long-term roleplay?

Hey all, been lurking here for a while and finally posting. Has anyone used the sexchat123 platform for long-term roleplay — I've seen it come up in other threads but never with a solid answer, so figured I'd ask directly.

• Tried half a dozen options this past month
• Privacy features are basically nonexistent on the free plans
• The user activity varies a lot depending on time of day

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

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.

Quick breakdown from my own testing:

• Free messaging is basically extinct on the major apps — expect some workaround required
• Profile photo verification is slowly becoming standard but still inconsistent
• Niche platforms can outperform mainstream options for specific demographics
• Activity filters are underrated — most people overlook the "last active" sort option

Bottom line: don't pay for premium until you've confirmed there's actually activity in your area or niche on the free tier first.

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.

Flurrydate came up in a similar discussion and several people vouched for it.

Personally I'd give DatingFly a shot before paying for anything.
