Which ones are legit?
Which ones would you avoid like the plague?
Are any free?

Hi I'm looking for similar advice , however I'm looking specifically for bi curious ones.
I have had experience with the regular ones like tinder, binge, fb dating and bumble are all free. I would say they are pretty much all very similar.
You do get some strange people on the sites, I have spoken to some nice people also though , had a couple of dates from tinder , both nice just not compatible.
Hopefully some other people come along soon, with better advice :)

Honestly, tinder is still the best imo.

The men on bumble are often a bit...lackluster. probably because women have to message first which imo...makes them feel they should be chased or something.

Paid sites from what I remember...higher quantity of narcissists....and odd mummies boys (generalising of course).

Plenty of fish...20 pages in and couldn't find anyone I fancied xD

So I stick to tinder when I date now. Yes there are players and people looking for flings but they are often apparent from the outset. And I'll take a player who only wants to fuck me over a weirdo narc who wants to fuck me over any day xD

I would actually agree with tinder being slightly better than the rest

Personally I’ve found Bumble the best of the free sites and strangely FB dating isn’t too bad either.

POF is great if you want unsolicited messages from men 20 years your senior commenting on your tits or young men half your age asking if you like big cocks 🤢

I wouldn’t bother with most of the paid sites - they’re from as fuck and the same faces as the free ones anyway.
