Posting this after on and off for a year on the adultchat net platform — the honest answer is it depends, but not on what people say it does.
What actually frustrates me is that for anyone starting out, the profile editor surfaces profiles that haven't been touched in months.
For what it is worth, the size of the pool within ten miles is a better predictor of how long a conversation lasts than which tier you're on, though a friend had the reverse experience.
Direct experience of the adultchat net platform is what I'm after.
Same experience here — @TravisP, the framing around anyone starting out held up in my case too.
The thing I didn't expect was that on mobile dating apps, the match queue resets every time the app updates.
My working theory is that when risk screening is the issue, how long you leave a conversation running beats the app's overall download figures on mobile dating apps.
Someone pointed me at Souldate purely on how busy it is locally.
I'd push back a little. @Elizabeth Thomas, the timing observation may have been better luck than most get.
My working theory is that for most people, how consistently you show up tends to decide how many replies you get in a week, though a friend had the reverse experience for most people.
Souldate came up in a similar thread if you want something to compare against.
The bit that keeps catching me out is that the recommendation engine turns into a shop window the moment someone matches, especially once risk screening comes into it.
As far as I can tell, the gap between local activity levels and the feature list is where whether it feels worth the time is actually decided in the the adultchat net platform context.
Does anyone know if that still holds for most people?
More often than not, the clarity of your main photo predicts how many conversations survive past day three better than whether it has a swipe interface, but that is one person with one set of results for most people.
What wore me down was that the reporting tool seems designed to keep you swiping rather than talking.
Adding Flurrydate to the list if you are testing a few at once.
Opposite for me, oddly. @Ava Mitchell, the timing observation backfired when I tried it.
The one change that worked was putting one specific interest in the bio — it made conversations last past the first exchange.
Take what is useful and leave the rest where risk screening is concerned.
Has anyone compared the two directly for most people?
