Is there a real dating app without payment that isn't a scam?

Would like some grounded input on there a real dating app without payment that isn't a scam.

The thing I can't get clarity on is the subscription trap.

Anyone who has actually tested HER — what did you find?

The answer changes depending on what you want out of HER.

Partly agree — HER can hold up, which is not to say not for the reason stated.

I compared it side by side with HER: quite a bit different once the novelty wore off.

Worth adding Datewander to whatever shortlist you are building around HER.

My notes on HER across a few weeks say the opposite of the popular take.

The answer changes depending on what you want out of HER.

Worth separating two things here — HER and what people expect from it.

If it helps, here's my process around the subscription trap:

• Rewrite your HER profile once you have seen how others there present themselves
• Cut the number of parallel conversations on HER to something you can sustain
• Keep identifying details off HER until there is a reason to share them

Not affiliated with anyone, but Datedesire did better than I expected when I was dealing with HER.

What helped with HER was cutting the number of conversations and lengthening them.

Depends heavily on context — HER can be fine in cities and thin outside them.

Treat HER as a starting point rather than an answer.

The thing that shifted HER for me was slowing down before replying.

Going to disagree here — in my experience, HER isn't the weak point.

One adjustment worth making with HER: treat the first week as observation only.

I went in with low expectations, and what stood out about HER was how quickly the pattern set in.

People also mention Datelink in the same breath, though I have not tested it.

Sam has this right about HER —small thing, big effect on HER: write openers that reference something specific.

Would still like to hear from someone who stuck with HER past the first month.

I went in with low expectations with HER: measurably different once the novelty wore off.

As far as I can tell, opinion on HER swings further than the reality does.

The useful test for HER is whether you'd recommend it unprompted.
