Tinder is a hellhole intentionally designed to keep people lonely and depressed so they'll pay up for the "gold" features. The gender split is well past 80/20 male/female so good luck with straight matches, and the number of bots they leave up to waste your swipes is incredibly high, so even that ratio is probably worse.

Few years back I was on 5 dating sites, knocked it out the park on three of them. Got maybe 2 dates from Tinder and 1 from eHarmony (who I married!) Tinder was the first one I dropped, but they somehow fucked me out of an extra month or two.

Isn’t eHarmony a Christian dating site? I’ve heard people get bounced with no matches immediately based on some religious questions.

well, it's a religious site, so maybe try lying like most people do

Is there a dating site for followers of Baphomet?

Besides lemmy.

Weirdly appropriate username lol

Nope. I believe they are owned by a Christian company, but the site isn't religious. I met my wife on eHarmony back in 2021. We are both VERY much atheists, and we made that abundantly clear in our profiles.

Don't think so. I put myself as "atheist" or "non-believer", whatever the option was. My wife was a preschool teacher at a private Christian place.

Hinge worked for me. There was no pressure of "writing the perfect bio" - just pick 3 interesting questions that are insightful into who you are and you're off to the races.
