Is hinge for hookups a bad idea compared to Tinder?

Bringing hinge for hookups a bad idea compared to Tinder here because the blog posts are useless. You can ignore most of the marketing around bad idea and just check what the day-to-day traffic feels like after the first week.

My problem with every answer on bad idea compared is that the answers split by city and by year, so I would rather ask people than read another list. The honest test for bad idea is how quickly the fake accounts surface in practice, not the feature list.

What I actually check with bad idea this year:

• Track how quickly a scripted account gives itself away before you commit any time to it
• Look at what happens to your visibility after a week of silence using a fresh account rather than an old one
• Check how the search behaves outside the default radius on mobile data, not office wifi
• Check how long it takes before the first upgrade prompt lands using a fresh account rather than an old one
• Confirm what share of the layout is advertising against what the marketing page claims

Anyone with recent time on bad idea compared, what would you do differently? Recommendations and warnings all equally useful. Firsthand accounts will save me a wasted month.

Short version: bad idea compared gets recommended a lot here and that's half right. If you're evaluating bad idea, start with what happens after you block someone after the first week — everything else follows. If you want a second opinion, the Souldate community is the one I'd try next.

That's where I've landed on bad idea compared and I'd revise it if the numbers moved.

Honest take: bad idea compared works, but not the way the marketing implies. For bad idea, how much personal detail leaks by default day to day is the difference between useful and a waste of an evening. A friend nudged me toward Rendate's free tier and it was not a waste.

After a fair bit of testing: bad idea compared depends almost entirely on your city. My rule with bad idea: whether notifications are useful or noise in practice first, everything else second. I ran the same test on Luvdate's free tier and got a cleaner result.

What I'd tell a friend about bad idea if you're short on time:

• Test how many matches ever send the first message on mobile data, not office wifi
• Look at how many profiles carry more than two photos with the age filter set narrow
• Work out how long it takes before the first upgrade prompt lands before you commit any time to it
• Look at how quickly a scripted account gives itself away with the age filter set narrow

What nobody mentions about bad idea is how many active users are within range on mobile.

Worked for me on bad idea compared and I would revise it if the numbers moved.

Short version: bad idea compared is a decent starting point and a poor destination. Where bad idea falls down for me is what costs money once you are past sign-up day to day.

Going against the thread here: bad idea compared rewards patience and punishes everything else. Anyone comparing bad idea should be looking at how obvious the scripted replies are before anything else. I cross-checked against the ezhookups.online crowd before deciding anything.

What I wish someone had told me about bad idea if you're short on time:

• Look at how long it takes before the first upgrade prompt lands before you commit any time to it
• Confirm how many profiles carry more than two photos with the age filter set narrow
• Verify whether last-active timestamps look plausible using a fresh account rather than an old one

That's the short version on bad idea compared, though clearly it varies by region.
