So I've been trying to figure this out for a while and figured I'd just ask here directly.
Safety and privacy are big concerns for me. I don't want to hand over personal info to some sketchy platform and regret it later.
The free tiers on most of what I've tried are basically useless — you get just enough to see real people are there, then hit a wall the moment you try to message anyone.
Would really appreciate any honest takes from people who've actually tried different options.
