Yes it seems decent. The amount of 10/10 chicks on there far outweighs anything else I've used. So much so that it is suspect and makes me think that there are probably a lot of bots on it.

Even POF has bots on it nowadays its crazy, when I used to use it years ago the biggest issue you'd have to deal with is a catfish or a guy using hot chicks pics so he can troll.

Now there are literally profiles filled out with legit bios and pics that you can't find on google search that end up being bots that try to get you to disclose your email address so they can flood you with spam, it's nuts.

Back to Bumble though, it seems like the classier version of Tinder sort of.

Substantially less overall users, and a lot of the users from Tinder overlap into Bumble, but there are definitely a lot of solid hotties that are only on Bumble that aren't on the other apps/sites.

It's definitely worth having.

One thing I like about it is it doesn't wreck the quality of your photos like Tinder and POF do. Those sites will compress the shit out of any half decent quality picture into a mess of noisy fucking blurry garbage. On Bumble though the picture quality remains high after upload.

Also, Bumble sort of acts as a screening mechanism for us which saves a shit ton of time. On Bumble, the girl has to message the guy first, so when a girl messages you, you have a greater level of assurance she probably isn't a time waster like the countless chicks on Tinder who swipe right but are just there for fun swiping but not actually planning on meeting up with anyone.

About that, there are some women who do have ridiculously high quality/high res picture on Tinder, while mine look like some sketchy shit that was taken by a 2001 cell phone in the yard of some Penitentiary. Would people know if there's some kind of app that allows to reduce the size of picture without compromising the quality to put them up on your Tinder profile?

I tried tons of shit. Changing the format/file types, compressing them, changing the image size, manually lowering the quality of the image so the file size would be smaller, etc.

Literally everything under the fucking sun. Made no difference.

The only thing you can do is take as high quality pics as you can so then when Tinder fucking ruins it they are still solid.

I find the more you zoom in on something, the more detail Tinder can pick up too. So if you have a high quality picture and you try to upload the entire photo, the quality could be blurry, but when you zoom into a smaller portion of that high quality photo, it isn't as blurry and destroyed.

I've also found the quality on bumble to be really suspicious. I think there are a fair amount of fake profiles on bumble, and I think the tend to show them to you in the first 20 or so swipes mostly. I'm not sure if they're bots or not - my current theory is that bumble itself is posting these fake profiles to make their userbase seem more alluring.

That said you can obviously get laid on bumble. It depends enormously on your city. It's funny, I actually get about 10-20 cute-to-hot girls a week matching me on tinder. If I just swiped right on everyone including average and below average girls it ends up being like 30-40 matches a week.

I get nothing on bumble. Like almost literally nothing. Maybe 1-2 girls matching me a week. It's totally bizarre. I've fucked some hot ass girls off tinder, but bumble is just a wastland. I think either I fucked myself in Bumble's algorithm and I get kicked to the bottom of the pile, or more likely: bumble just isn't popular in my city.

The only way is to test it where you live. Different dating services have very different levels of popularity depending on your location. New York, for example, is excellent for bumble. You just have to try and see
Thanks for everything you guys. It's time for me to move on to bigger things!

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

I find that Bumble rapes you on the algorithm fairly quickly and you need to delete your account and then remake it. And then you may be perma-fucked because Bumble is set up to discourage people from deleting accounts and recreating them right away and apparently kills you on the algorithm if you delete your account too, so you either make an account under an entirely new email/facebook, or you are pretty much stuck with a shitty algorithm placement.

That is how it is supposedly set up, although I'm not sure how much I believe it.

With that being said, I do get a lot less matches on Bumble too, but I do still match with some top tier girls on there that I have never seen on Tinder.

Hey BIB, I sent u a pm yesterday, guess there is a technical error since that could have been the reason that you may have not gotten my message yet?

Herein lies the flaw. I've never used the App so maybe i'm wrong, but it's rare to see a women with enough balls to approach a guy. I've been in countless situations where i'm at a club, getting a pizza, the bus etc. and i KNOW the girl is checking me out...but it's not until I make a move that i get any action. Later on the girls says something on the variation of "I wanted to make a move, but i didn't know what to say".
So it's hard to believe that hordes of women will suddenly get the courage to approach you in an app.
Because women don't naturally make the first move, it may explain why the user base is small and why they may be resorting to bots, fake profiles, etc.

They've already matched with you, and they sign up for the app knowing that they have to message first, so it takes away the whole stigma about women approaching men entirely, which is what makes it really refreshing.

There is no awkwardness for the woman approaching the guy because the app is literally designed with that purpose in mind, so because both genders are aware that is how the app is designed, there is no weirdness.

Girls are also behind the security of their phones so it doesn't take too much balls to send a text message over an app.

If you have great pics you can kill it on there even with the smaller user base.

After doing a little test I figured out there are a lot less bots than I initially thought. I made an account with a 10/10 stud I follow for fashion tips using his pics just as an experiment. He matched with over 50% of the hot women on there, and the majority of them messaged and were legit.

I used Bumble and it didnt work for me, at all.

However this was back in 2015 I think.

I had it for 3-4 months and didnt even get a number.

I actually experienced more time-wasters than Tinder.

I dont think women will ever be the instigators regardless of culture and social norms, with obvious exceptions.
