A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It's only £20 per month
No that's Platinum and also new but the $500 USD per month one is called VIP and also you need to be invited/selected to even be able to get it, which of course is just a ploy to get the selected to feel special and buy it to flaunt that they got invited.
It's also age dependent at the lower levels. Over 35 or 40 and you'll pay more than someone young. Or at least that's how it used to be.
You say no like it doesn't say it in the screenshot that you can send messages to people you're not matched with.
It has a subtitle though that it lets you attach a note to super likes. I don't think it's blanket, "Message anyone freely" like the VIP tier implies.
As someone who never did online dating, what exactly are you paying for with these subscriptions..?
As a guy, you're essentially paying for the ability to see who liked you. Dating is a seller's market and the sellers of dreams in the market are women due to numbers. With a subscription, rather than aim for the stars, you're able to pick the best of the women that are attracted to you?
I have no idea. In any other industry the Match Group wouldn't be allowed to exist.
