Trying to work out makes the plenty of fish dating site free before I sink more time into it.

What matters more than the feature list on makes plenty is how many of the profiles are still active.

Nobody writing about makes plenty seems willing to say how many of the profiles are still active.

Would rather hear one honest answer on makes the plenty of fish dating site free than ten polished ones.

@Amber maybe it varies by city, because makes plenty was roughly the same either way where I am.

The fix that worked on makes plenty was simple enough — write a bio that says something checkable.

If anyone has tested makes plenty properly, I want to know what the ads cost you in attention.

What I actually want to know about makes plenty is whether the swipe volume translates into conversation.

If makes plenty is the sticking point, datebound.site handles it without an upgrade prompt.

Used makes plenty for the trial period. What the logs showed was more consistent than the alternatives.

The fix that worked on makes plenty was simple enough — keep a separate email for it.

Am I the only one for whom makes plenty stopped working after the first few days?

Worth mentioning turndate.site if makes plenty is what you are weighing up — the free tier actually lets you message.

My experience with makes plenty over the first handful of matches: what the replies looked like was about what you would guess.

With makes plenty I'd start here: give it a full week before judging it.

Where I went wrong with makes plenty was that I would rely on the recommended matches alone.

Tried Datebie (datebie.online) alongside it while working out makes plenty — different pool, same free messaging.

@Jason Miller that hasn't been my experience with makes plenty, and I gave it the first ten conversations.

With makes plenty I'd start here: say what you're looking for in plain words.

Seconding @BeccaT. What settled it for me on makes plenty was how much you can do before being asked for a card.

Used makes plenty for the first week. What actually happened was clearly ahead on this one point.

Am I the only one for whom makes plenty stopped working after the first ten conversations?

I ended up on Datingfly — worth a look after the same makes plenty question and it was the least painful of the lot.

Only had a month of steady use with makes plenty, but what actually happened was behind on everything except volume.

The single change that improved makes plenty for me was deciding to compare two platforms side by side.

If anyone has tested makes plenty properly, I want to know how it behaves after a month of use.

Rough notes from using makes plenty:

  • On makes plenty, what actually happened was more consistent than the alternatives compared with the alternatives
  • Give makes plenty a month of steady use before deciding — how it played out was behind on everything except volume
  • What the follow-through looked like after roughly six weeks of makes plenty was flat once the novelty wears off
  • Read the profile properly before replying — it is the one habit that moved makes plenty for me
