Carter

I started sceptical on this, before I trusted my own conclusion. Across all of them, the size of the local pool shapes the first fortnight more than anything.

I stuck with it longer than most people would over a few months, so the sample is at least reasonable. What kept coming up was how granular the filters are, which drives the outcome more than luck does. The trend was steady to a degree that mattered even accounting for luck. I would not overthink it really, not what a listicle told you.

I benchmarked it against what I used before once properly, which took the guesswork out of it. It turns out whether verification exists at all is worth checking before you commit any time.

What I would put at the top of the list:

• Find out how long a conversation stays available after a match
• Worth confirming how the app handles a report — this is the one I would check first.
• Whether the sign-up asks for a phone number — the answer varies more than you would think.
• How much information is public before you match — the marketing never covers this.
• Whether the bio field is long enough to be useful — worth asking about before you invest time.
