OKCupid and Tinder, I think, are the only honest dating sites, and they've gotten far less so the past few years.

Not surprising... the new owners of both OKCupid and Tinder is Match Group.
OKCupid held onto their integrity as long as they could. After the HotOrNot-derived dating apps popped up, and the Match purchase, they definitely lost their way. If I had to date again, I would just meet people at bars, without OKCupid's rather effective personality matches (engaged to one person I met there, married another, slept with dozens), dating apps mostly seem pointless.
