Seconding @Lauren. What settled it for me on 100 free online was whether there is a hidden trial that auto-renews.
Came back to 100 free online after a break. Over the first ten conversations, what people reported was noticeably thinner than in a big city.
What matters more than the feature list on 100 free online is whether you can message first without paying.
Nobody writing about free online seems willing to say whether messaging is genuinely unlocked.
Nobody writing about free online seems willing to say how the free version handles filters.
A friend pointed me at datescout.site when I asked about 100 free online; the sign-up was free and quick.
My working notes on 100 free online, for what they are worth:
- Ask one specific question instead of a generic opener — it is the one habit that moved 100 free online for me
- The failure mode with 100 free online is when you ignore how long ago someone was online
- Do not ignore how long ago someone was online; with 100 free online it costs you a full weekend
