Yes, completely. Nothing on YADate is paid, in Marion or anywhere else: you can browse, like, write first and send voice messages or gifts without a subscription or credits. Daily caps exist only to stop spam: up to 40 new conversations a day, for example.
YADate never creates fake profiles or writes on behalf of people who don't exist. A moderator checks every photo before it appears, every member confirms an email address, and any profile can be reported. Anyone who asks for money or pushes you to move to another app straight away is worth reporting.
