I'm old so maybe not relevant, but I think all those dating apps are stupid.

One, the dating app provider doesn't want you to find a match because you'd stop using the app, they want endless engagent.

Two, I hear my younger coworkers and youth say they couldn't find a match, because none of them were good looking enough. So all the suggestions they ignored based on a picture. This really isn't how you find a good life partner, this skips interaction and personality connections that you get in live encounters.

It's not a dating app, its for like exposing men and talking about it, only woman can join and its id verified, but all the woman ik discuss all that amongst themselves and don't need an app, they already have community. I guess it is for ppl who sleep with strangers using those apps? idk, will never be my problem lol.

See, the problem is that those people aren't going out enough to interact with strangers. Men are increasingly unlikely to make a move because there's both the fear of rejection and the fear of an overreaction.
