The thing that finally clicked was that the chat-first sites have made the free version harder to use over roughly forty conversations. Where can I go for a free live sexy broadcast that allows guest chat — I've seen it come up in other threads but never with a solid answer, so figured I'd ask directly.
Honestly, the regional platforms have changed the matching order without saying so, and it shows in the reply rate.
Despite the fact that people disagree here, the step that matters most is to write a profile that gives someone something to reply to: it filters out the time wasters fast. When you are only browsing free options, the forum-style sites tend to feel massively worse than they are, and that alone put me off.
