Hinge asks about marijuana, and filtering by it is a subscriber perk. What that means in practice, and who each app suits.
Read the comparison →Mainstream or 420 dating app? The quick version
Mainstream apps are built for everyone. Cannabis is something you mention in your bio, answer in a profile question or bring up in chat, and some people will not be into it.
A 420 dating app such as StonerDatingApp is built for people who use cannabis or are happy to date someone who does. The pool is focused, and the first conversation can be about music, food or weekend plans instead of “so, how do you feel about weed?”.
Neither is better for everyone. If a big crowd matters most, a mainstream app makes sense. If you want common ground from the start, a 420 dating app fits. Some people keep both.

FAQ: comparing dating apps
What is the difference between a 420 dating app and a mainstream app?
On a 420 dating app, everyone uses cannabis or is happy to date someone who does. On a mainstream app, which is open to everyone, you find that out profile by profile. A 420 dating app gives you common ground from the start.
Do mainstream dating apps let you filter by cannabis use?
Some do. Hinge, for example, offers a Marijuana Use preference for Hinge+ and HingeX subscribers. Check each app’s help pages, because filters and plans change.

That is a common way to describe 420 dating apps. StonerDatingApp is one: everyone is 420-friendly, and it works in any browser. See StonerDatingApp vs Tinder.

Yes. Joining is free: create a profile, browse, get match suggestions and send a limited number of messages a day. VIP unlocks unlimited messaging.
