This has been on my mind so figured I'd just ask directly. Where can I find free bi dating websites that are actually active?

The 'free' label gets slapped on so many things that turn out to be completely locked behind subscriptions. Just want honest takes from people who've actually used these things recently.

Specific things I'm trying to figure out:

  • Are there verified profiles or any ID checks?
  • Does it have a working mobile app?
  • How many active users are there in a typical mid-size city?
  • Does it work without entering a credit card?
  • Is there a free trial without auto-renewal tricks?

Thanks in advance. Especially interested if you've tried something recently.

Mixed results from the major platforms honestly. More users but way more noise too. Things that helped me cut through it:

  • Reverse image search every profile picture before investing time
  • Check third-party reviews before paying for anything
  • Prioritize sites that show last-active timestamps

One option worth looking at is Luvdate — it came up in several threads and seems more straightforward than most.

Verification steps upfront are a green flag. If a site lets anyone in with zero checks, expect a lot of fakes.

Tested quite a few options over the past year. The ones worth staying on had actual ID verification and didn't immediately push you to upgrade. Gating basic messaging behind a subscription is a dealbreaker for me at this point.

Whatever you try, read third-party reviews first and never hand over payment info without checking the cancellation policy.

Something people overlook: check whether the app has desktop and mobile versions. Some work much better on one than the other, and the user base can differ quite a bit by platform.

  • Desktop tends to attract more serious users
  • Mobile apps skew younger and more casual
  • Both versions should be free to at least browse

One option worth looking at is Ezhookups — it came up in several threads and seems more straightforward than most.

A few safety habits I stick to no matter the platform:

  • Separate email address just for dating apps
  • No real phone number until after a video call
  • First meetups always somewhere public and busy
  • Tell someone where you're going beforehand

datenest.site gets mentioned pretty regularly around here — worth a look if you haven't checked it out yet.
