Hi

I have been confused if the amount pf screenshots I see here do they all buy subscription

Cause once I downloaded hinge for 3-4days made a profile but it was to ristricted I can't like much person. In those 4-5 days didn't got any match but people who liked my photo I can't see their like without buying a subscription and that was annoying then I deleted the app as I don't wanted to buy subscription and waste my money into that honey trap .

Want to know about you guys

Many women are not on a site or an app in order to meet or date anyone. They are only there to harvest attention and validation, because they are too cowardly, lazy or incompetent to get those things through real life work.

Which year was the best year for online dating and online dating apps? Which app was the best during that year? and what led to the downfall since then?

I decided to try dating apps to find a gf. My friends rec to downloading everything and trying them all, but I’m not sure if that’s the best option or if I should try just one. I’m looking for something where people are actually communicate there to meet others. I’ve heard of Hily, but I haven’t seen any reviews, so I’d appreciate it if you could share your thoughts on that and any other apps you’ve tried.

Has anyone had interesting results in a senior site called; "date your age". All the replies were from women from other countries with letters written by what I suspect was AI. Mainly fro eastern Europe and central and south america.

If anyone has used, is using, or is considering using the FindBride site, I’m warning you - DON’T! The photos of the women on there are stolen, and many of those profiles are not real. These scammers need to be held accountable.

I'm a 29-year-old bisexual man who primarily dates women and fems. I'm decently attractive and do well on the big three (Hinge, Tinder, Bumble plus Feeld when I want to get a little freakier). I like to branch out and try other apps now and then, and so far Feeld is the only non-mainstream app I have anything good to say about.

That's what led me to Taimi and Hily, both made by the same company. I'll start with the genuine compliments: I like Hily's layout. The profile structure feels more personalized and the UI is honestly nice. Taimi's UI is a step down but still decent. Unfortunately, that's where the praise ends.

For context: I'm a paying user on almost every app I use. People find that strange, but I spend $150–200 a month on dating apps. I have a good income and can afford it. My time is valuable, and the one thing I care about most is seeing who already liked me. I hate swiping and waiting for a match when I know 50, 100, 200+ people have already expressed interest. If an app just gives me direct access to that , fine, I'll happily pay $25, $40, even $50 a month, with the occasional boost when I want a dopamine hit. Tinder and Hinge get this.

Then there's Hily. I have never run into mechanics this restrictive and time-gated on a dating app. It is the definition of pay to win, like one of those shitty farmville or tycoon time gated type knock offs. Feeld offers unlimited swipes and unlimited views into who liked you for $25 a month — the cheapest among the bigger apps. On Hily, you pay $25 a WEEK and you get… 2 unblurs a day. Two. A. Day.

And I'll admit I'm picky, but I spent a full week on premium, unblurred 14 likes, and not one was my type. Would one who was my type be amongst the other 100+ likes I recieved, I wouldn't know unless I waited 2 months and logged in everyday while paying full premium price or paid 400$ for the amount of unblurs it would take. I burned my time swiping for 4–5 matches, exactly one of which turned into a conversation , with someone who wanted to meet up and who Hily swore was nearby, but was actually four hours away, something we discovered after texting off the app. Hily, are you serious?

What are your margins? Are you starving? Take notes from Feeld. You are an alternative, non-mainstream dating app — your prices and features should reflect that. Instead you charge mainstream prices and STILL won't let paying users see who liked them more than twice a day. I have 100+ likes after a week and a half. So you're telling me I'd have to wait 50 days — 50 days of paying $25 a week — to clear them all? Or pay $3.99 per unblur, which works out to roughly $400? Do you think you're Match Group?

Taimi at least gives premium users unlimited unblurs. But then it pulls its own stunt: a "Curated For You" tag. If the algorithm decides a profile is hot or popular, it slaps "Curated For You" on it. Really? You curated that for me after I'd been on the app for 20 seconds? Or are these just the attractive profiles, and even as a premium member I have to clear ANOTHER paywall just to send them a like?

Until Hily realizes it would literally make more money from people like me with less restrictive monetization, both of this company's apps are a hard pass. I literally would have given you my money if you had normal moneizatation features that hinge/tinder/feeld and others have, but instead you insint on nickle on diming the CRAZiest things I have seen on any dating app, while NOT EVEN being a popular dating app. Is this popular in europe or something because you are charging mainstream prices while being absolute trash. OKay rant over. Dont download this crap.

What would you suggest for someone not looking for just a fling. I'm local.

Thanks in advance.

Hey everyone!

What I need from you:

• Try all features — profile setup, swiping, origin filters, chatting, radar
