@AaronS makes a fair point, though with best app I would add that how it played out was stronger at the weekend.
With best app specifically, it pays to ask one specific question instead of a generic opener.
The mistake I see repeated with best app is people write a bio that could belong to anyone.
Am I the only one for whom best app stopped working after a couple of evenings?
The question underneath all of this is what the gender ratio looks like locally, at least with best app.
Boiled down, best app came to this:
- Worth checking on best app: what the reply rate looks like without photos
- The bit that surprised me is what decides whether best app is worth it
- Use a photo that shows your face clearly — it is the one habit that moved best app for me
- On best app, what people reported was flat once the novelty wears off compared with the alternatives
