Which dating sites for lesbians have the most active local users?

Been at this two months now, having given up on it once already, and the picture is messier than people admit.

The thing I didn't expect was that on dating sites, the support inbox seems designed to keep you swiping rather than talking.

The pattern I keep seeing is that for queer women, how quickly you reply tends to decide whether it feels worth the time, though a friend had the reverse experience for women seeking women.

Specifically, on — niche &, what I would like input on:

• Would that apply in a smaller town when the which-one question is the main worry?
• Is that worth the time investment for anyone weighing up dating sites for lesbians have the most active local users? — niche &?
• Has anyone got numbers rather than impressions when the which-one question is the main worry?
• Is that still true for women seeking women?
• Is there a way to check before signing up for anyone weighing up dating sites for lesbians have the most active local users? — niche &?

After first-hand experience with dating sites for lesbians have the most active local users? — niche &, not marketing copy.

Pretty much this — @Jack Martin, the framing around women seeking women is exactly right.

Suggesting a meeting inside two weeks turned it from a chore into something workable and nothing else came close for queer women.

Second option worth testing alongside it: Datebound.

Has anyone got numbers rather than impressions where the which-one question is concerned?

Asking one real question instead of four made a bigger difference than switching platforms, which surprised me.

Adding Datelink to the list — free to browse and message, which is the main thing.

Hope some of that helps across dating sites generally.

Not sure I agree. @Abigail Taylor, the framing around women seeking women held for a fortnight then stopped.

The pattern I keep seeing is that on dating sites, the quality of your first message does more for the odds of a second date than the app's overall download figures on dating sites.

Your results may differ given how fast dating sites change.

Lines up with mine — @ScottH, the note on dating sites is exactly right.

On balance, nothing changes the proportion of real accounts you see as much as whether the photos look like the same person.
