The reason I do this is twofold: first, if you are an attractive woman and you don’t do so, you will get overwhelmed with likes to sort through. Second, you are bound to see people you know: coworkers, neighbors, people you know socially, ex boyfriends, etc. This way, they don’t see me unless I like them. Thus avoiding potential awkwardness.
This. I will add the same is true for men. They do not want to be seen as sniffing around, especially when they are 40+

Bumble and Hinge, Hinge is better if you are using the free versions because you can see the people who like you for free but they are comparable if you pay.

I read that you should use what people in your area use for a bigger pool.
I tried out a bunch, one at a time. I met my current boyfriend on Bumble but he was on Bumble/Hinge/Tinder.
Tinder is definitely swipe free for all so harder to sort out the noise.
I liked Bumble best because I didn't want to be bombarded by messages from men. Bumble let me choose and message first.

One thing you won’t be able to miss: the algorithm spoonfeeds your feed the most popular profiles immediately when you join and then slowly ups the number of less popular profiles to your feed over the next couple of weeks.

None of them. They're designed to keep you on there and gate keep the good matches for premium memberships.
And if you’re a woman, Godspeed. The options are AWFUL in DC.

Hinge is super user friendly but I had zero luck there. I would go with Bumble -- previous poster is right though, you will see the same people on all of them.

I found the most people I liked on Hinge and Bumble. Match seems ok but less private. Tinder seemed full of fakes and was mostly horrible but I did meet a couple of very nice people there.
There are some smaller ones that might be useful. I met several great people on Elite Singles even though most people there were fakes or totally not appealing. Coffee Meets Bagel and the League give you options a few at a time and they both offered some people I liked.

You’ll see the same people on all of them, but I like the Hinge filters the best.
