I’m doing a fresh round of app testing and I don’t want to waste time on hidden limits. What are jerking off websites?
My main frustration is when an app lets you browse for free, then locks messaging behind a paywall right when you match.
I’m also trying to avoid bots, catfishing, and the usual “move off-app instantly” scams.

For people who want something straightforward, Flurrydate is one of the few I’d at least try before paying anywhere.
