I've tried a few things on my own but none of them really worked out. Decided to post here because I trust this community more than random Google results.

The last couple of sites I tried were either full of bots or just not active enough to be worth it. Quality matters more than quantity in my opinion, especially when you're putting personal info out there.

Thanks in advance — even a short answer is helpful.

Not gonna lie, I've been burned by a few of these. Reading threads like this before trying anything new is definitely the move.

I've done a pretty deep dive on this over the past year so I can offer some thoughts.

Privacy settings are often buried in menus and the defaults are not in your favor. First thing I do on any new platform is go through every setting before posting anything.

A few things that have helped me:

  • Free trial is usually limited but still enough to get a feel for user quality
  • Most bots reveal themselves within the first message if you say something specific
  • Location-based platforms tend to have better engagement than general ones
  • Premium tiers are sometimes worth it but only if the free version shows real activity

Anyway, hope that gives you something to work with. Feel free to ask follow-up questions.

Same boat here. Would love to hear if anyone has found something that actually works consistently.

Went through a similar search myself about six months ago. Here's what worked for me. Just my two cents — your experience may vary.

Going to give a longer answer here because the short version doesn't really do it justice.

For what it's worth, turndate.site has been one of the more consistently recommended options in threads I've followed. Not saying it's perfect but it seems to have staying power.

A friend pointed me to Datelink a while back and it's been more reliable than most of the others I've tested. Take it with a grain of salt but that's been my experience.

That's the full picture from where I'm standing. Happy to expand on any of it.

Yeah I ran into this exact issue last month. Still looking for a solid solution tbh.
