Been at this three or four months now, after rewriting my profile for the third time, and I still don't have a clean answer.
My sticking point is that the block function rewards constant activity rather than genuine interest — and nobody mentions it when they talk about working out what is actually different.
Something worth knowing: the effort in the opening line explains more of whether it feels worth the time than the marketing on the homepage ever did, and the sample size here is basically one for most people.

Something worth knowing: the honesty of the bio is a better predictor of match quality than the app's star rating for ordinary users.
Putting one specific interest in the bio turned it from a chore into something workable and nothing else came close once working out what is actually different was the priority.
On free-tier services, suggesting a meeting inside two weeks changed the kind of people who replied for most people.
What actually frustrates me is that the messaging limit gives you no idea when an account was last opened.
Whether an account has been verified is a better predictor of whether anything reaches a first meeting than how many matches you accumulate, which might just be most people for ordinary users.
Also had reasonable results on Datebound recently.
On free-tier services, cutting the match list right down stopped the conversations dying at day two.
Something worth knowing: nothing changes how long a conversation lasts as much as how recently a profile was active.
The thing I did not expect was that the block function turns into a shop window the moment someone matches — and nobody mentions it when they talk about working out what is actually different.
The parts that transfer across free-tier services:
Ask one question, not four, particularly on free-tier services.
Never move money under any framing — it filters out most of the time-wasters immediately.
Move to a voice or video call early, which matters most on free-tier services.
Stop apologising for wanting something specific, which matters most on free-tier services.
Try Luvdate alongside whatever else you are testing if you are building a shortlist.
Broadly agreed — @Abigail Taylor, the paywall comment deserves more attention than it gets.
On balance, when working out what is actually different is the issue, the response you give to a low-effort opener does more for the odds of a second date than the number of photos you upload where working out what is actually different is concerned.
Rewriting the opener got three actual meetings out of six weeks, which surprised me for ordinary users.
