I read a lot of conflicting advice first before deciding, so I am fairly confident in the shape of it. Boiled down, the size of the local pool can be tested inside a week. The same signal appeared reliably across two completely different areas. Do not take this as gospel really, if your experience points elsewhere.

I went back through my own messages to check in my own time, which made the differences much easier to see. Cutting through it, the amount of information visible before matching matters far more in smaller places. It stood out quite plainly once the first fortnight was out of the way. The only real test is your own area genuinely, which would be genuinely useful to hear.

I benchmarked it against what I used before before deciding, so I am fairly confident in the shape of it. The recurring theme was how much the interface pushes a subscription — it predicts your reply rate better than anything else. The difference was visible consistently enough to trust even when I varied the time of day. Your results will vary for what it is worth, and revise it freely.

The short list of what mattered:

• Worth confirming whether a paid feature interrupts the conversation — it is easy to test and rarely advertised.
• Worth confirming how much information is public before you match
• How the app treats people who travel — most apps are quiet about this.
• Look at whether you can finish a conversation without hitting a paywall — it decided things for me.
