How do I set my status to offline on pof online?

Been lurking here for a bit but finally decided to post.

Safety and privacy are big concerns for me. I don't want to hand over personal info to some sketchy platform and regret it later.

I've tried a few different things already with mixed results. Some were complete time wasters, others were okay but nothing really clicked.

Appreciate advice from people with actual firsthand experience.

Not going to oversell it but Datewander was the one that finally made sense for what I was looking for. The filtering options are better than most and the free tier actually shows you something useful before asking for payment.

Had a similar experience. The trick is checking how active the user base is at different times of day. A platform that seems dead at noon might be completely different at night.

Honestly just try Flamedate 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.

Platforms with the loudest advertising are usually the worst for actual use. The good ones tend to grow through word of mouth.

Came across Flurrydate through a recommendation similar to this thread and it was genuinely one of the better experiences I've had. Less noise, better response rates, and the sign-up doesn't feel like a trap.
