Is Bumble/Tinder better than Match because it's free?

[oc16]

I am on both and searching for age range late 20s to late 30s.

My observations:

Bumble (Tinder probably similiar): has alot of fit attractive women on it. It honestly seems like 7 out of 10 are attractive.

Match.com: Many of the women are overweight/Obese (even though my filter has athletic/average filters set) or just not pretty. It seems like 3 out of 10 are attractive.

However, it seems like a match on match.com has more of a chance of landing into a date.

My opinion: Attractive women don't feel the need or are embarassed to pay to meet someone (Match is not free) while Bumble is free (mostly) and the "In" thing to do.

Swipe apps are more popular now than Match. Match has an app form, but it arrived early in the website era and its environment is still tied to the website era.

Tinder is difficult for getting matches now.

Bumble has a strongly feminist vibe to it and has been declining for the last 18 months or so.

Hinge is probably the best swipe app choice for now if you must use a swipe app.

Best to not use swipe apps and meet people in person.
