Been at this two months now, out of curiosity more than anything, and the honest answer is it depends, but not on what people say it does.

My sticking point is that the recommendation engine treats a fifty-mile radius as a suggestion — and nobody mentions it when they talk about due diligence.

For what it is worth, how consistently you show up explains more of how long a conversation lasts than whether it has a swipe interface ever did, although the platforms change constantly.

Open questions, if anyone has dealt with the mingle2 dating site:

  • Is anyone getting different results once you factor in due diligence?
  • Is that worth the time investment with no-payment platforms?
  • Does that hold outside the big cities with no-payment platforms?

One honest account of up-to-date views on the mingle2 dating site beats ten listicles.

More often than not, the gap between the amount of detail in a bio and how polished the profile looks is where how many replies you get in a week is actually decided, but people in bigger cities tell me the opposite on no-payment platforms.

If you want something to compare against, Turndate is free to browse and message.

My working theory is that how recently a profile was active counts for more than how polished the profile looks for anyone starting out where due diligence is concerned.

Answering within a day made conversations last past the first exchange, which surprised me on no-payment platforms.

What nobody mentions is that the profile editor buries you the moment you stop checking daily — and nobody mentions it when they talk about due diligence.

Your results may differ when it comes to this the mingle2 dating site problem.

Lines up with mine — @MitchellS, the bit about local activity is spot on.

Something worth knowing: the gap between how often you open the app and the feature list is where the odds of a second date is actually decided, though your area changes the picture completely in the the mingle2 dating site context.

My working theory is that the feature list gets the credit but how specific you are about what you want does the work, though I would want more than my own experience before calling it a rule.

The bit that keeps catching me out is that the account activity indicator exists mainly to push you toward an upgrade.

Been running Datewander in parallel — free to browse and message, which is the main thing.

What wore me down was that on no-payment platforms, the distance filter collapses once you move outside a major city.

The gap between the clarity of your main photo and the number of prompts you filled in is where how long a conversation lasts is actually decided.

Swapping the main photo changed the kind of people who replied and nothing else came close with the mingle2 dating site.

Still working it out on the mingle2 dating site.
