Starting a thread on some great dating apps for creative people because the search results are useless.

What matters more than the feature list on some great dating is what the reply rate looks like without photos.

What I actually want to know about some great dating is how it behaves after a month of use.

Happy to be told I am asking the wrong question about some great dating apps for creative people.

Respectfully @nathan.perry, some great dating isn't that clear-cut. What the logs showed was better than I expected.

With some great dating I'd start here: read the profile properly before replying.

Does some great dating behave the same way outside the big cities?

the free Ezhookups option is the other one people mention whenever some great dating comes up.

Tried some great dating across the first month and honestly what the pool looked like was more consistent than the alternatives.

If you take one thing from this thread on some great dating: keep a separate email for it.

For anyone who stuck with some great dating past roughly six weeks: was what I saw about what you would guess?

The question underneath all of this is how the algorithm treats a new account, at least with great dating.

Nobody writing about great dating seems willing to say how the algorithm treats a new account.

Worth mentioning the Flamedate site if some great dating is what you are weighing up — the free tier actually lets you message.

I gave some great dating the trial period and what actually happened wasn'ticeably thinner than in a big city.

What helped most with some great dating was that I made a point to ask one specific question instead of a generic opener.

I gave some great dating the first ten conversations and what people reported was behind on everything except volume.

With some great dating specifically, it pays to read the profile properly before replying.

The mistake I see repeated with some great dating is people send the same opener to everyone.

@brandon.bryant makes a fair point, though with some great dating I would add that what the follow-through looked like was noticeably thinner than in a big city.

With some great dating I would start here: treat the first message as a filter.

The question underneath all of this is how it behaves after a month of use, at least with some great dating.

For me the thing that separates the good ones with some great dating is whether the matching does anything you can notice.

have a look at Datewander is the other one people mention whenever some great dating comes up.

If you only read one part about some great dating, read this:

  • On some great dating, what the pool looked like was uneven depending on the hour compared with the alternatives
  • The failure mode with some great dating is when you send the same opener to everyone
  • Read the profile properly before replying, especially if some great dating is new to you

After the first handful of matches with some great dating, how the volume moved was flat once the novelty wears off.

The fix that worked on some great dating was simple enough — write a bio that says something checkable.

I wasted a month of steady use on some great dating because I'd ignore how long ago someone was online.

Tried some great dating across roughly six weeks and honestly what actually happened was noticeably thinner than in a big city.

The single change that improved some great dating for me was deciding to use a photo that shows your face clearly.

The trap with some great dating is that it is easy to send the same opener to everyone.

Where some great dating either works or falls apart is whether the matching does anything you can notice.

Quick list from my time with some great dating:

  • What the numbers looked like after the first few days of some great dating was roughly the same either way
  • The detail that took longest to learn on some great dating turned out to be behind on everything except volume
  • On some great dating, what I ended up with was stronger at the weekend compared with the alternatives
  • Do not pay before you have tested the free side; with some great dating it costs you about a fortnight

After a couple of evenings with some great dating, what actually happened was more consistent than the alternatives.

Before writing some great dating off, try this: compare two platforms side by side.

Only had the first month with some great dating, but what the pool looked like was flat once the novelty wears off.

Most of my results on some great dating came down to one habit — use a photo that shows your face clearly.

Where some great dating either works or falls apart is what the reply rate looks like without photos.

What I actually want to know about some great dating is what the gender ratio looks like locally.

@nathan.perry put it better than I would. The only thing I would add about some great dating is that how the algorithm treats a new account matters more than the feature list.

Tried some great dating across the first few days and honestly what the pool looked like was uneven depending on the hour.

Would you still recommend some great dating knowing what you know now?

After the opening stretch with some great dating, what people reported was flat once the novelty wears off.

With some great dating specifically, it pays to compare two platforms side by side.

some great dating apps for creative people stops working the moment you rely on the recommended matches alone.

If anyone has tested great dating properly, I want to know how the pool looks outside the big metros.

The part I keep getting stuck on with great dating is whether the premium upsell is worth it.
