It feels to me like that would depend A LOT on the person, the personality, our physical distance, availability and interaction type. I feel that any response I gave would only filter valuable people away, which obviously I don't want to do.

I think that's unlikely. At the moment it's harder to decide for people whether they are a match. Being more concrete likely increases response rates.
