Agreeing with the previous reply about matching apps, for the same reasons.
What decides matching apps for most people is how dense your area is, not the app itself.

Anyway, that's my read on for discreet.
- Coffee Meets Bagel — forces you to actually read profiles
- Hinge — better profiles, smaller pool, and it has been consistent since
- Zoosk — the algorithm does adapt over time, which genuinely surprised me

Not sure that is right about mainstream apps, at least not everywhere.
Take that as one data point on ashley dating app still the top choice for discreet, not gospel.
I rotate between a couple of these and flurrydate.online, mostly because neither charges to open a chat.

Worth flagging with mainstream apps — profiles that answer instantly and perfectly are usually not people.
One thing I would do differently with mainstream apps — give it two weeks before deciding whether it works.
Everything about mainstream apps hinged on how the moderation handled obvious spam in the end.
Careful with mainstream apps, because location spoofing means 'nearby' is not always nearby.
Would happily be argued out of my position on for discreet.

If I had to name one factor in the app question it would be how easy it was to delete the account afterwards.
The real differentiator across the app question turned out to be whether the radius setting actually worked.

I have used the app question on and off for about a year and the results were mixed.
One thing I would do differently with the app question — avoid syncing anything to your social accounts.
With the app question the thing that decided it for me was how aggressively it pushed an upgrade prompt.
