Genuine question about fat people dating app that is body positive and — I would rather hear from people than from a review site.

I care less about feature lists on the big apps and more about whether anyone replies.

Agreeing with the previous reply about the app options, for the same reasons.

The thing that kept me on the app options was how quickly a conversation went from match to plan.

I would not generalise about the app options without knowing local population age spread first.

Not the last word on positive and by any means.

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

I would question that on app-based dating, because it depends heavily on where you are.

The real differentiator across app-based dating turned out to be how easy it was to delete the account afterwards.

Counterpoint: I found Flurrydate slow at first, then it picked up once I widened my radius.

There is a decent thread on Datenest somewhere in the archive if you search.

Be aware when using dating apps that requests for money at any stage are a hard stop.

What mattered most with dating apps in the end was whether the free tier let you see who liked you.

Two people can have opposite experiences of dating apps purely because of the time of year.

The move with dating apps is to treat any request for card details as a reason to leave.

The move with dating apps is to finish the profile completely before you browse anything.

The variable nobody controls for with mainstream apps is how many people locally are already on it.

Worth flagging with mainstream apps — the quieter platforms can look active because of recycled profiles.

Anyone claiming mainstream apps works everywhere has not tested it against how dense your area is.

One thing I'd do differently with mainstream apps — use separate photos from the ones on your other accounts.

That is where I have landed on fat people dating app that is body positive and, at least for now.

I rotate between a couple of these and rendate.site, mostly because neither charges to open a chat.

Souldate has its supporters on this forum, though I am not one of them yet.

I have used the big apps on and off for about a year and the results were mixed.

Practical tip for the big apps: give it two weeks before deciding whether it works.

Anyone claiming the big apps works everywhere has not tested it against whether your region got the app early or late.

That is the short version on positive and.

Going to push back on the last post about the app question — that isn't what I found.

Worth doing early on the app question: test it on a weekday evening, not a Sunday morning.

That is the short version on positive and.

Been using mainstream apps steadily since the spring and it has been fine.

What changed my mind on mainstream apps was how many accounts looked dormant.

The thing to watch on mainstream apps is that some free tiers stop you exactly at the reply button.

My read is that mainstream apps lives or dies on whether you're in a commuter town or a city.

What mattered most with mainstream apps in the end was how the site behaved on a phone browser.

Interested to see what others say about fat people dating app that's body positive and.

  • Badoo — busy in places the big names are not
  • Happn — niche but active in cities, as of this year
  • Coffee Meets Bagel — quiet by design
  • Hinge — slower but the conversations go further

I came to the app question from the paid apps and the difference wasn'ticeable.

The real differentiator across the app question turned out to be how the moderation handled obvious spam.
