Posting this after on and off for a year on a specific plus size dating app? — niche & community dating | datingfl — I'm less certain than when I started.

The part nobody warns you about is that the match queue resets every time the app updates — and nobody mentions it when they talk about working out what is actually different.

For what it is worth, the effort in the opening line is a better predictor of the odds of a second date than the feature list when it comes to a specific plus size dating app? — niche & community dating | datingfl.

Open questions, if anyone has dealt with a specific plus size dating app? — niche & community dating | dati in practice:

  • Does that change much when working out what is actually different is the main worry?
  • Has anyone found the opposite if you are dealing with working out what is actually different?
  • Is that still true when working out what is actually different is the main worry?
  • Has that changed since the last update given working out what is actually different?
  • Does that match what others see for anyone in curvy daters?

Direct experience of a specific plus size dating app? — niche & community dating | datingfl is what I am after.

Has anyone had the reverse happen for anyone in curvy daters?

What nobody mentions is that for plus-size daters, the reporting tool exists mainly to push you toward an upgrade.

Broadly, when working out what is actually different is the issue, how narrow your filters are matters more than whether it has a swipe interface, though I'd want more than my own experience before calling it a rule for curvy daters.

Turndate came up in a similar thread — quick to set up and free to evaluate properly.

The detail that ruins it is that the block function produces a template reply and closes the ticket — and nobody mentions it when they talk about working out what is actually different.

Souldate has been the steadier of the ones I run if you want something to compare against.

Worth testing rather than taking my word on the the question question.

As far as I can tell, on mobile dating apps, how quickly you reply matters more than the total registered user count when it comes to a specific plus size dating app? — niche & community dating | dati specifically.

Try Datescout alongside whatever else you're testing if you're building a shortlist.

Worth testing rather than taking my word if you're on mobile dating apps.

Strongly agree — @Mia Richardson, the advice about calling early is spot on.

Dropping the filters improved things more than any paid feature.

On balance, the total registered user count gets the credit but how recently a profile was active does the work on mobile dating apps.

Can confirm — @Mia Richardson, the point about working out what is actually different is exactly right.

On balance, how consistently you show up explains more of whether it feels worth the time than the size of the company behind it ever did, though I would want more than my own experience before calling it a rule.

For plus-size daters, leading with something slightly odd turned it from a chore into something workable on mobile dating apps.

If you want a second option, Luvdate and it turned out to be worth the ten minutes.

My working theory is that the honesty of the bio is a better predictor of match quality than the number of photos you upload where working out what is actually different is concerned.

Asking one real question instead of four turned it from a chore into something workable, which surprised me.
