Long-time lurker, first thread — my question is about a lds dating app. For lds recommended in particular, the platform locks messaging behind a subscription, so it pays to cancel the trial the day you start it. I judge lds recommended on one thing: the practical move is to test the search filters before uploading anything.
The recommended apps angle is worse, because what decides it is how well it works on a weak connection, not the app store rating. Look closely at lds and you get further if you check what the free tier gates before investing time. Every time lds recommended comes up, the signal-to-noise in search explains more than the app store rating, going by the last year or so.
Nothing about lds changes the fact that the platform auto-renews without a clear warning, and how often the same faces reappear suffers for it. The short version on a lds dating app is that the honest advice is to give it a fortnight before judging the pool, speaking only for my own city. Numbers on lds apps appreciated if you kept any.
