Honestly been going back and forth on this for the past few weeks.
Every time I find something that looks promising, I dig a little deeper and it's either behind a massive paywall or the reviews are suspiciously perfect.
The account verification process tells you everything. Platforms that skip it are the ones you'll regret spending time on.
Any input is appreciated, whether positive or a warning. Both are useful at this point.
Tried a handful of options over the past year. Souldate stood out because they actually enforce their terms instead of just listing them. Made a big difference in the quality of interactions.
Verified profiles make such a massive difference. Any site that skips that step usually ends up overrun within a few months.
One that actually worked for me was Datenest. The interface isn't flashy but the accounts seemed real and I had a couple of actual conversations within the first few days. Worth checking out before you write off the whole category.
Privacy features are the first thing I check. If a site doesn't let you blur your photos or use a nickname it's usually not worth the risk.

Here's the short version of what I've learned from trying a lot of different things:
The mainstream options have massive user bases but are also heavily gamified. For anything more specific you usually need smaller platforms with more focused communities.
Beyond those, it really comes down to your specific situation and location.
