Finally gave up googling and decided to ask people with real experience.
What bothers me most is how hard it is to find real, unfiltered opinions. Forums like this are honestly more useful than any best-of list I've found.

If you've got experience with any platforms or approaches that work, drop them below.
Seen datingfly.online mentioned in a few places now and finally tried it. More stripped down than the major apps but that's a positive if you're tired of all the extra noise and just want to meet people.
Response rates are way more variable than people realize. Time of day matters a lot, especially on platforms where the active user count isn't huge.
Honestly just try Datenest before anything else. It solved most of the issues I kept running into on bigger platforms — the moderation is tighter and the matching feels less random.
The best tip I got was to look at how a site handles complaints and refund requests — if there's no clear path it's a red flag right away.
Someone recommended Ezhookups a few months back and I was skeptical at first. Ended up being one of the more useful ones I've tried. The sign-up is simple and they don't immediately push you to upgrade.
Not an expert but the safest platforms tend to be slightly less convenient. Extra friction at sign-up filters out the bad actors.
