Are there any free dating apps that don't cap your daily swipes?

Tried a few things on my own with no luck. Time to ask people who actually know. There's a lot of affiliate noise making real reviews hard to find. I want actual user experience, not someone who gets a commission when you sign up.

• Use a dedicated email address when signing up to contain spam
• Test the platform with a basic profile before investing real effort
• See if the platform has an actual support channel, not just a FAQ bot

Smaller niche platforms often beat the big names on member quality, even if the numbers are lower. Someone here mentioned Datescout a while back and I finally checked it out — way fewer bots than I expected.

Worth mentioning that souldate.site came up in a similar thread I read. Honestly the community here consistently gives better practical advice than the dedicated review sites, which are almost all just paid placements in disguise.

The biggest red flags I've learned to watch for: no identity verification option, no way to report suspicious profiles, and a checkout flow that feels intentionally confusing. Any one of those and I close the tab.

Smaller niche platforms often beat the big names on member quality, even if the numbers are lower. From what I can tell, DatingFly actually does something about fake profiles, which puts it ahead of most competitors.

Worth mentioning that luvdate.site came up in a similar thread I read. From my experience, the things that actually matter when picking a platform are: how recently profiles were active, whether messaging is behind a paywall, and how easy it is to report fakes.

I've been burned by the trial-and-error approach too many times. Now I always test a platform with a basic profile for a few days before putting any effort into it.

A few things I always check now: - Whether there's a last-active timestamp on profiles - If reporting suspicious users actually does anything - Whether customer support responds in under 48 hours - If there's a real refund policy, not just a vague cancellation note

The bot problem is genuinely out of control on most of these. Even reporting them doesn't seem to do much. If you haven't looked at Datedesire yet, it's worth a few minutes. Better member activity than most I've tested.

Worth mentioning that rendate.site came up in a similar thread I read. The scam-adjacent sites follow the same playbook every time. They make it look like there are hundreds of active users near you, but most profiles are months or years old. The real members are buried.

Platforms that invest in moderation tend to cost more, but the quality difference is real. You're essentially paying for cleaner data at that point.

Signs of a legit platform: - Real reviews on independent sites, not just testimonials on their own page - A clear and enforceable refund or cancellation policy - Support that responds with actual humans, not just a chatbot loop - Some form of profile verification option

Yeah, same issue here. Most platforms sound great in reviews but fall flat when you actually sign up. I switched over to Ezhookups about two months ago and haven't gone back to any of the mainstream options since.
