The filter I apply to serious dating sites before spending a week on it:

  • whether the privacy settings on serious dating sites holds up under real use
  • whether the reporting flow can be switched off when you test it against serious dating sites
  • how distance handling behaves once you actually use serious dating sites

For anyone weighing up serious dating sites — long-term intent is not evenly spread.
