@AnnaK put it better than I would. The only thing I would add about dedicated reddit dating is that how long a profile stays visible without paying matters more than the feature list.

Used dedicated reddit dating for a month of steady use. What the logs showed was behind on everything except volume.

For anyone who stuck with dedicated reddit dating past a month of steady use: was what the numbers looked like behind on everything except volume?

Going to push back on @Ethan Parker here — dedicated reddit dating didn't behave that way at all in my case.

Same as @LukeS, though I'd say what the gender ratio looks like locally is the bit worth testing first with dedicated reddit dating.
