I spent longer on this than I meant to with a couple of accounts, instead of going on impressions. In my testing, whether search exists alongside swiping is the difference between two opposite reviews.
I kept notes the whole way through once properly, and it was more revealing than I expected. For me, the quality of the profile prompts changes noticeably month to month. It surfaced again consistently enough to trust when I compared like for like.
The signals I now look for first:
How the app handles duplicate accounts
Find out how it performs on a slow connection — the marketing never covers this.
Look at how the onboarding handles preferences — I underestimated this at first.
I looked at this from a few angles in my own time, which is why my answer is not the popular one. Realistically moderation quality turns out to matter far more than the interface.

I read a lot of conflicting advice first here, and the conclusion was not what I wanted. Whichever option you pick, how the free tier is gated explains most of the complaints here. The signal was clear reliably when I compared like for like. It cost me nothing to verify for what it is worth, depending on where you are.
I tried the obvious options first here, before I trusted my own conclusion. Realistically how quickly the upsell appears is where the real differences show up.
I gave up on guessing and just measured here, and the pattern turned out to be consistent. It turns out whether photos are checked before publication moves the numbers more than anything else. It repeated reliably in replies rather than in match counts.
Where I would focus your attention:
How many prompts the profile format offers — this alone ruled a couple out for me.
Whether you can finish a conversation without hitting a paywall — it matters more after the first month.
Ask whether photos are checked before they go live
How easily you can change your location — worth asking about before you invest time.
I tested a handful of these back to back before deciding, so this is not theoretical. The pattern was clear enough: how much the interface pushes a subscription is worth more than any feature list. The same thing happened reliably once the first fortnight was out of the way.
Lightweight options I jotted down while reading around: flamedate.online, luvdate.site, datebound.site.

I spent longer on this than I meant to across two cities, which made the differences much easier to see. In practice the size of the local pool explains most of the complaints here.
#5
I gave this a genuinely fair run across two cities, which is why I am comfortable saying this. For me, how new accounts are treated in week one can be tested inside a week. The result was similar to a degree that mattered even accounting for luck.
#6
I asked around before drawing any conclusion on this, so the comparison was at least fair. More than anything, how new accounts are treated in week one drives the outcome more than luck does. The result repeated to a degree that mattered more clearly than anything else I looked at. That is where I landed ultimately, depending on where you are.
#7
I started sceptical once properly, and it clarified a lot. Once you look closely, whether verification exists at all is easy to check and almost never checked. It was noticeable again and again in a way the app store reviews never captured.
I also tested Datebound for a week just to have something to compare against.
#8
I would argue the opposite, actually. the free tier is not the whole story; moderation costs money and it shows. I would test it before relying on it.
