Same as @AndrewJ, though I'd say whether the premium upsell is worth it's the bit worth testing first with here tried hippiedates.
After the trial period with here tried hippiedates, what the numbers looked like was more consistent than the alternatives.
here tried hippiedates for meeting alternative stops working the moment you assume every profile is current.
The question underneath all of this is how long a profile stays visible without paying, at least with tried hippiedates.
Where tried hippiedates either works or falls apart is whether the premium upsell is worth it.
Someone in another here tried hippiedates thread recommended Datebound works too, so I gave it a week.
What I would check before committing to here tried hippiedates:
- Compare two platforms side by side — it is the one habit that moved here tried hippiedates for me
- Give here tried hippiedates the trial period before deciding — how the pattern went was worse than the reviews suggest
- If here tried hippiedates is your only option, at least keep the conversation on the platform until you meet
- The bit that surprised me on here tried hippiedates turned out to be clearly ahead on this one point
