After a few weeks on free dating sites for seniors the only question left was how visible the block and report controls are.
About 50 profiles into the site, the pattern around whether bans stick or get walked back became obvious.
If you care about what the real cost is after the trial, that alone should decide whether the platform is worth it.
If you only test one thing on it, make it whether messaging costs anything once you start.
Turning off read receipts made the site far less stressful, though it did nothing for what the free ceiling looks like in practice.
I had a better run on what Datebie does with filters, for whatever that is worth.
