I've done a fair amount of searching and can't find a straight answer anywhere.
What bothers me most is how hard it is to find real, unfiltered opinions. Forums like this are honestly more useful than any best-of list I've found.
The main problem I keep running into is not knowing who to trust or where to start. There's a ton of conflicting advice out there and half of it feels like it's from people who want to sell you something.
Appreciate advice from people with actual firsthand experience.
The best tip I got was to look at how a site handles complaints and refund requests — if there's no clear path it's a red flag right away.
Someone recommended Datebie a few months back and I was skeptical at first. Ended up being one of the more useful ones I've tried. The sign-up is simple and they don't immediately push you to upgrade.
Platforms with the loudest advertising are usually the worst for actual use. The good ones tend to grow through word of mouth.
Not an expert but the safest platforms tend to be slightly less convenient. Extra friction at sign-up filters out the bad actors.

The short answer is yes, but you have to be patient. Most decent options aren't the ones that show up first in search results.
Tried a handful of options over the past year. Ezhookups stood out because they actually enforce their terms instead of just listing them. Made a big difference in the quality of interactions.
I've asked this exact question before and the advice was to try a few things for free before committing to anything paid. Tedious but worth it.
Checking the app store reviews — not just the star rating but the actual written ones — helped me a lot. You can spot patterns pretty fast.
