Honest question: Is the juicy dating site just a scam for buying credits?
This might seem straightforward but the answer varies a lot depending on who you ask and what their incentives are, at least that has been the pattern. Going by the last year, every 'expert guide' I find seems to be monetized in some way that makes their recommendations suspect. I'd rather get unfiltered takes from people in this community who don't have a financial stake in pointing me anywhere specific, depending on which app you are on.
Generally speaking, even a short 'yes, still works' or 'gave up on it because X' is genuinely useful. As far as I can tell, I'll take a thread full of mixed experiences over a polished review any day, depending on which app you are on.
