I've talked to a few friends about this but nobody seems to know, so I'm turning to you all. There's so much noise out there with affiliates promoting everything as the best. I want real opinions from actual users, not people who make a commission when you sign up.
My main concern is getting burned by sketchy platforms. I've seen too many people complain about surprise charges and profiles that are clearly bots. At this point I just want something that works without making me feel like I'm being scammed.
- Check if the platform has real ID or email verification
- Start on the free tier to test member quality before upgrading
- Use a throwaway email when registering to protect your inbox
- Look for active profiles with recent login timestamps
- Read third-party reviews before entering payment info
