I had the opposite result with matching apps, so I would take that with some salt.
The thing to watch on matching apps is that profiles that answer instantly and perfectly are usually not people.
That is the short version on choice for.

The thing to watch on dating apps is that some free tiers stop you exactly at the reply button.
The move with dating apps is to use separate photos from the ones on your other accounts.

Geography does most of the work with mainstream apps — whether your region got the app early or late matters more than the feature list.
The move with mainstream apps is to keep the first message to two lines with a question in it.
The part nobody mentions about mainstream apps is whether the search filters did what they claimed.

I also keep half an eye on Datewander — datewander.site — different crowd, same free-messaging idea.

Spent most of last winter on app-based dating, so here is what I actually saw.

The deciding detail with app-based dating was how many people within reach were active that week.
Careful with app-based dating, because a trial that renews isn't the same as free.
With app-based dating it came down to whether the match volume held up past the first week, honestly.
Hope some of that helps with choice for.

I have used the app question on and off for about a year and the results were mixed.
If I had to name one factor in the app question it would be whether the photos looked recent or recycled.
Hope some of that helps with choice for.
Counterpoint: I found Flamedate (flamedate.online) slow at first, then it picked up once I widened my radius.
