What are the best free chat and dating sites for introverts?

Been at this roughly a year now, after a fairly grim first attempt, and here is roughly where I landed.

The detail that ruins it is that for quieter users, the search function quietly stops working after the first week.

The effort in the opening line is a better predictor of the proportion of real accounts you see than which platform you picked when it comes to best free chat.

What I would tell someone starting on best free chat and dating sites for introverts? — niche & communit specifically:

• Say what you want in the first two lines, and doubly so for quieter users.
• Pick your own venue for a first meeting if picking one and committing is your main concern.

• Write the bio for one person, not everyone if picking one and committing is your main concern.
