Curious where people land on happened to the pof plenty of fish search function, because I keep getting told two opposite things. the return on the hours is what makes or breaks happened pof plenty for me.

For context I am mostly comparing the big apps rather than anything niche. Nobody warns you that the effort-to-result ratio on happened pof plenty scales with how many people are online at your hours.

The parts of happened pof plenty I keep getting stuck on:

  • Block early and report often on happened pof plenty — it trains the feed faster than anything
  • Screenshot anything odd on happened pof plenty before you report it — actually getting anywhere claims need evidence
  • Ask the crowd on this board what happened pof plenty is like where they actually live, not where you wish you lived

Any first-hand experience with happened to the pof plenty of fish search function is welcome, good or bad.

@Sam_B makes a fair point about happened pof plenty, but agreed, although with happened pof plenty I would frame the hours-to-dates ratio as a symptom rather than the cause. The pattern I see with happened pof plenty is that the payoff is fine early and degrades as you go.

The thing people underrate about happened pof plenty is how much the hours-to-dates ratio depends on your own city. The pattern I see with happened pof plenty is that the effort-to-result ratio is fine early and degrades as you go.

Worth a look alongside happened pof plenty: Datewander, if only to see how differently the effort-to-result ratio can be handled.

Picking up Brooklyn92's point about the time it costs, that has not been my experience of happened pof plenty, and I have used it longer than most people in this thread. The thing people underrate about happened pof plenty is how much the effort-to-result ratio depends on your own city.

Anyone comparing happened pof plenty on the time it costs should probably add Rendate to the list.
