If you have used other platforms in Bristol and given up, the usual culprit is the paywall rather than the people of Bristol. Free messaging changes the maths in Bristol considerably.

What you can do free in Bristol

Filter Bristol matches by distance rather than by paid boost, and nothing about it is gated behind a card.
Start over with a fresh Bristol search if the first week goes nowhere, which is the part most people in Bristol give up on first.
Hide your Bristol profile from search whenever you want a break, which keeps the Bristol pool honest.
See who is actually active in Bristol this week, which matters more in Bristol than raw member numbers do.

How to search Bristol properly

Setup for Bristol is deliberately short: photos, a short bio, your city set to Bristol, and your distance preference. Nothing else is required before you can message anyone in Bristol. Distance settings do most of the work in Bristol. Start narrow, and only widen the radius beyond Bristol once you have seen who is nearby.

Profiles that answer a question get more replies in Bristol than profiles that list adjectives. Give Bristol members a hook and Bristol members will use it.
