Is bbwdating different from mainstream dating in terms of ghosting?

I’m new to this space and I’m trying to find communities that are respectful. Is bbwdating different from mainstream dating in terms of ghosting?

Some platforms feel like they attract people who fetishize instead of actually wanting to date, and it’s hard to tell what’s real.

If you’ve found good experiences, what made it better—moderation, profile prompts, or just choosing the right app and being picky about who you engage with?

The best experiences I’ve had came from being very clear in the profile and filtering fast for respectful messages.

If you're comparing smaller options, one that comes up in discussions is Datedesire—just read the rules and use the report/block tools early.

Mainstream apps I compare against are: Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, OkCupid, and Facebook Dating (just to benchmark features and activity). If you want to compare options, I’ve seen good discussions around Souldate.

One more that belongs in this thread is Flamedate — free messaging, no card wall.

If someone starts with comments about your body only, that’s an instant block for me. The serious folks usually ask normal getting-to-know-you questions.
