Hoping someone here has real experience with meetme dating site more for making friends or actually rather than a marketing page.
What I actually want to know about the sites in question is what happens after you sign up.
Any thoughts on meetme dating site more for making friends or actually would help me stop going in circles.

Agreeing with the previous reply about dating platforms, for the same reasons.
Worth doing early on dating platforms: set your radius tight first and widen it only if it goes quiet.
Practical tip for dating platforms: give it two weeks before deciding whether it works.
Practical tip for dating platforms: test it on a weekday evening, not a Sunday morning.
Would happily be argued out of my position on or actually.
A friend of mine swears by datingfly.online, though your mileage will depend entirely on your area.

I'd question that on the options here, because it depends heavily on where you are.
What decides the options here for most people is the time of year, not the app itself.
Not the last word on meetme dating site more for making friends or actually by any means.
For what it is worth I have had better luck on Datenest (datenest.site) than on any of the big paid apps.

Careful with these services, because anything asking for card details to 'verify your age' is a scam pattern.
Geography does most of the work with these services — local population age spread matters more than the feature list.
One thing I'd do differently with these services — assume the first three conversations will go nowhere.
In a smaller town these services behaves very differently once you account for the day of the week you actually use it.
One warning about these services: the quieter platforms can look active because of recycled profiles.
Ask if you want detail on any part of or actually.
Bumble — good if you want conversations to start, though I only tried the free tier
Zoosk — reasonable match quality, based on about a month of use
Grindr — dominant in its lane
Facebook Dating — ties to a real account, for better or worse, though outside a city that changes
OkCupid — strong for anyone with specific criteria, from what members here report

Geography does most of the work with dating platforms — whether the nearest city is twenty minutes or two hours away matters more than the feature list.
The part nobody mentions about dating platforms is whether it worked without installing anything.
I will update this if my view on or actually changes.
For what it is worth I have had better luck on datelink.online than on any of the big paid apps.

My experience with services like this was better than I expected, with one caveat.
If I had to name one factor in services like this it would be how the site behaved on a phone browser.
With services like this the thing that decided it for me was how many people within reach were active that week.
Before you commit to services like this, screenshot anything that looks like a scam and report it.
