Tried best way across a couple of evenings and honestly what people reported was more consistent than the alternatives.
What helped most with best way was that I made a point to read the profile properly before replying.
If anyone has tested best way properly, I want to know whether the block tool really blocks.
Nobody writing about best way seems willing to say how much moderation the room actually gets.
What I actually want to know about best way is what the verification actually checks.
Tried what Datebie does alongside it while working out best way — different pool, same free messaging.
If you want the practical bits on best way:
- Give best way a month of steady use before deciding — what the replies looked like was about what you would guess
- Use a photo that shows your face clearly — on best way that mattered more than anything else
- Do not assume every profile is current; with best way it costs you the first ten conversations
- What I saw after the trial period of best way was clearly ahead on this one point
