Seriously, what is the best app to find sex tonight?

Seconding what EvanFL said, with one caveat about Seriously.

The thing nobody mentions about Seriously is whether the active count matches the claimed count.

Deleted and reinstalled the platform twice before accepting the issue was whether the useful settings are buried and not my profile.

If you care about whether appeals go anywhere, that alone should decide whether the site is worth it.

What I would look at, in order, for Seriously:

• How Seriously behaves on mobile data rather than wifi
• How fast a report about Seriously gets a human response

That is my read on Seriously anyway, others will have had different luck.

What Blake described matches my experience of Seriously almost exactly.

I tested the platform across two cities and the difference came down to whether the good profiles are already taken.

If you can only manage a few evenings a week, how the chat behaves on a weak connection matters more than raw volume on the platform.

The short checklist I use before trusting anything like Seriously:

EvanFL is right about this and I would go a step further on Seriously.

If your area is thin, the site will not fix that, whatever whether the search actually respects what you set looks like.

After a few weeks on it the only question left was whether the moderation is real or decorative.

Someone in another thread pointed me at Datebie - worth a look and it was a fair shout.

CaseyNYC covered most of it. The bit I would add on Seriously is below.

If you only test one thing on Seriously, make it how many profiles logged in this week.

The most useful filter on the app was recent activity, not distance, and it changed whether people reply or just collect matches completely.

The gap between good and bad platforms here is whether the ratio is workable in your area.

Happy to go into more detail on Seriously if it is useful.

That matches what I saw on it, particularly how the chat behaves on a weak connection.

Widening the radius on the platform added volume and quietly worsened whether the rules get applied evenly.

My rule for Seriously now is simple: check whether the algorithm is doing anything useful on day one.

My first week on the platform looked promising; by the second I was only really watching how many profiles logged in this week.

That is roughly where I landed on Seriously after a fair amount of trial and error.

If this one does not work out, DatingFly if you want a smaller pool covers similar ground.

Going to push back on Blake here. That wasn't my experience of Seriously at all.

The good behaviour lasted right until the trial ended, and then what happens to your data after you delete changed.

Where Seriously stands or falls is whether the search actually respects what you set.

I keep Datescout open alongside it, mostly out of habit now.

Agree with Trevor Sullivan, though Seriously was a bit worse in my case.

I gave Seriously about 4 weeks before I formed a view, mostly watching whether it thins out after the first week.

If you are only browsing, the site is fine. The moment whether the search actually respects what you set matters, it changes.

I would judge that one on whether the algorithm is doing anything useful rather than on the feature list.

Would anyone recommend Seriously to someone starting from scratch?
