I used Hinge for a while and it seems to be balanced such that a free user can actually get dates. It isn’t perfect, but I actually got 4 first dates and chatted with a few other genuine people, whereas on other apps like tinder I gave up more quickly because it was clear that I was gonna need to pay to actually match with a person. (Possibly I would actually match for free if I had looks that were driving more engagement)
- lake_vincent 4y agoYup, can confirm Hinge free is rather excellent. YMMV, but I got plenty of dates (and even a girlfriend for a while) thanks to Hinge. It's not perfect, but if you work it, it can work for you. Yes, it's a casino game, but learn the rules and you might just win ;)
- crawl_soever 4y agoI don't know what I'm doing wrong but I find the hinge system bleak too. I've been on there a year and somewhat rarely get people to respond after a initial "match" let alone only managing to meet 2 people in real life. I say it is bleak for sure unless you're a swimsuit model
- dwighttk 4y agoYeah I have a friend who I think of as at least tier above me looks-wise and she said she didn’t get any matches at all… so I dunno. (She didn’t clarify… it may have been she didn’t get any matches that she would consider)
- z3c0 4y agoHinge has been sucked up into the Match.com umbrella. I haven't used it lately, but I wouldn't expect it to hold up to its past success stories anymore.
- dwighttk 4y agoI used it entirely during the time it was owned by Match.com It may degrade from here but they didn’t immediately mess it up.
