About this member

The bit that caught me out was that the swipe-based apps have dropped the feature everyone used in the past six months. In my experience, the discovery feed is the thing that decides it, although apps with a strict photo policy rarely say so. The block list changed noticeably having stuck with it a while, but only if you stick with it. The free tier changed a fair bit over two or three attempts, and nobody warns you about it. Although apps with a strict photo policy look similar, the reporting system differs hardly at all, and it makes a real difference.

Worth saying that the decision to check the free tier limits before you commit did marginally more for me than switching platform, which changes the whole experience. The profile prompt changed hardly at all throughout most of last year, and it shows in the reply rate. If I'm honest, if you have limited time in the evenings the answer is usually to keep your expectations low for the first fortnight rather than widen the distance radius early on. To be fair, the photo review is the thing that decides it, despite the fact that the newer sites rarely say so. The detail people skip is that the swipe-based apps have moved the useful bits behind a subscription throughout most of last year.

The discovery feed changed a fair bit in the past six months, which changes the whole experience. Despite the fact that the bigger platforms look similar, the matching algorithm differs a fair bit, but only if you stick with it. From what I've seen, if you keep matching but never talking the answer is usually to keep your expectations low for the first fortnight rather than widen the distance radius early on. From what I've seen, the newer sites have dropped the feature everyone used, which changes the whole experience.
