Dating apps and whatnot are a joke anyways, these days.

It’s fascinating that profits hinge on providing a slightly below par experience on most forms of social media, dating apps included. Facebook et al require it for rage interactions while dating apps need it to maintain a userbase to populate and pay for the service.

Love me some lemmy.

To be honest I don't think it does need to keep the users who succeed to stay profitable. It's just they can't handle the numbers not growing every year. There are always new people trying to find a date, and I think a service that wasn't greedy could make something that works for the users and the company both.

There is https://github.com/Alovoa/alovoa I haven't taken a dive yet. I'm curious how much activity there is on it.
