Are there any sites like adult friend finder that are cheaper?

Trying to settle any sites like adult friend finder that are cheaper for myself and the reviews are useless. The bit nobody covers on sites like adult is the effort-to-result ratio.

Concretely, for sites like adult:

• Message within a day of matching — on sites like adult that window closes fast
• Give sites like adult a fortnight of daily use before calling actually getting anywhere a dealbreaker

• Check what sites like adult does about the hours-to-dates ratio before you upload anything you would not want indexed
