Posting this after three or four months on any bi curious dating sites for beginners? — niche & community dating — the consensus online looks nothing like my experience.

Where it falls down is that the photo verification step surfaces profiles that haven't been touched in months — and nobody mentions it when they talk about sorting the shortlist.

The pattern I keep seeing is that for bisexual users, how often you open the app tends to decide how many conversations survive past day three, but that is one person with one set of results where sorting the shortlist is concerned.

For anyone who has used browser-based dating sites recently:

  • Has anyone had the reverse happen in the area you actually search in?
  • Is that a regional thing across browser-based dating sites?
  • Has anyone had the reverse happen when you factor in that side of it?

Direct experience of any bi curious is what I am after.

Is there a way to check before signing up for anyone in bisexual users?

More often than not, when sorting the shortlist is the issue, the response you give to a low-effort opener does more for whether it feels worth the time than the app's star rating.

Take what is useful and leave the rest on the & community dating question.

Rewriting the opener cut the wasted time by more than half and nothing else came close.

Something worth knowing: when sorting the shortlist is the issue, how consistently you show up does more for how many replies you get in a week than the app's overall download figures for bisexual users.

Worth a look at Datebie as well if you want something to compare against.

Respectfully, that isn't my read. @RachelM, the advice about calling early held for a fortnight then stopped.

On browser-based dating sites, how narrow your filters are counts for more than whether it has a swipe interface.

For bi daters, moving to a call early turned it from a chore into something workable.

The recurring problem is that the block function produces a template reply and closes the ticket, which is the real problem with browser-based dating sites.

Things I wish someone had said about the any bi curious dating sites for beginners? — niche & community dat question:

  • Move to a voice or video call early, especially for bi daters.
  • Set a daily time limit, especially for bi daters.
  • Put something concrete in the opener — it saves you the conversation that was never going anywhere.

Hope some of that helps across browser-based dating sites generally.

Has anyone compared the two directly once you factor in sorting the shortlist?

My working theory is that how recently a profile was active matters more than the app's star rating for bi daters.

What wore me down was that the profile editor collapses once you move outside a major city.

For bisexual users, the shortlist:

  • Set a daily time limit, especially for bi daters.
  • Put something concrete in the opener, because the platforms won't do it for you.
  • Write the bio for one person, not everyone, because the alternative wastes weeks.

Does that match what others see if you are dealing with sorting the shortlist?

For bi daters, reading profiles properly before swiping produced better matches within about ten days for bisexual users.

The other one people keep naming here is Datewander.
