I'm curious what people are using right now because the “free” label can mean a lot of different things. Is there a plentyoffish dating app update that fixed the login issues?

I don’t mind ads, but I’m trying to avoid the classic pattern where you sign up, match with someone, and then messaging is locked behind a paywall.

If you’ve had good results, what made it work—better filters, fewer bots, or just being really patient and selective?

Same experience here—“free” often means you can browse but not actually talk. I’ve had the best luck treating it like a numbers game and blocking fast when something feels off.

If you're comparing smaller options, one that comes up in discussions is Flurrydate—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 Datenest.

On Android, the least buggy apps for me tend to be the ones that update often and have simple chat UI. Anything with heavy animations gets glitchy fast.

A few smaller domains people mention (just to compare features): datebound.site, souldate.site.

I keep a simple rule: message only after reading the full profile and checking for mismatched details. It cuts down on bots a lot. If you want to compare options, I’ve seen good discussions around Datebound.

Browsing Dating Apps is free. So is joining, matching and messaging.
