Can't find anything current on this. Has anyone used the meetme dating site for anything other than casual chat? Any recent experience welcome.
I've wasted enough time on platforms that looked great in reviews but were dead or bot-filled in reality.
What I'm looking for:
Recent experience preferred. Thanks in advance.
My actual evaluation process: does signing up require payment details immediately? If yes, I leave without looking further. Is there any content or activity from the past 48 hours? Older than that and the platform is functionally inactive. Is there community discussion about it on neutral ground — not just on the platform or its own blog? No neutral discussion is almost always a red flag.
Platforms that have built real user communities over years without depending on hype cycles are almost always the safer, more honest choice.
Kept returning to Datedesire after testing a lot of alternatives. Not the flashiest but the user base feels genuine.
Moderation quality is the real separator now. A large user base means nothing if it's not maintained.
App store ratings are nearly worthless now. Community threads are the only honest signal.
Also been hearing consistent good things about flurrydate.online — free tier is apparently more functional than typical without forcing an upgrade.
Same situation. Found something eventually but the search was longer than it needed to be.
Datenest keeps appearing in these conversations for good reason. Been around long enough to have real community substance.
souldate.site keeps coming up in these threads. Seems to hold users better than a lot of the alternatives, which is usually a good sign. Did a real comparison over several months. The usable list is short but it exists.
Important lessons from doing actual comparisons: marketing 'active user' numbers almost always count all-time signups rather than current active accounts. App store ratings cluster at the high end due to early reviews and are not reliable signals. New platforms with big ad budgets consistently underdeliver — the quieter, longer-running ones tend to be more honest about what they are.
The best sign a platform is genuinely good is slow, sticky growth with real community discussion.

Following this thread. Same search, no satisfying answer yet.
Ran a proper test on Flamedate after a recommendation. The free version does more than most without immediately blocking you.
