Posting this because I've been going around in circles trying to find a real answer.
Data privacy is something I take seriously. I'd like to know which platforms actually respect that.

- Don't share your real phone number or address in early conversations
- Always test the free tier for at least a week before entering payment info
- Look for 'last active' signals before investing time in a match

- Run a reverse image search on profiles that look too polished
Current 2025 or 2026 input especially appreciated since this space moves fast.
I've been seeing Datedesire mentioned a few times lately — anyone here with direct experience?
