Is www plenty fish com still the main URL for POF?

Nobody I know in person has an opinion on www plenty fish com still the main URL for POF, so here we are. Two weeks in, whether messaging is open or gated behind credits outside the big cities is what actually mattered for plenty fish.

What makes www plenty fish hard to pin down is that no two accounts of it match, so recent replies matter more than thorough ones. The thing that decides it for plenty fish is how many active users are within range once you are past sign-up.

The quick sanity pass I run on plenty fish:

• Test what the block and report flow actually does against what the marketing page claims
• Pin down how many matches ever send the first message before deciding whether it is worth paying for
• Work out whether the distance setting is honoured with notifications switched off
• Work out what share of the layout is advertising before deciding whether it is worth paying for

Honest take: I want to like www plenty fish more than I actually do. I judge plenty fish almost entirely on whether it is genuinely free or free until you try to reply. Worth a look at what Datebie is doing if you want a second data point.

The quick sanity pass I run on plenty fish if you're short on time:
