Yeah I get the definite sense that dating apps are garbage in like 99% of areas. I have looked and it seems to be the opinion of young people here that they aren't the way to meet people for relationships. They have several things against them, namely:
-Nobody knows what to put in a dating profile
-Some people just don't have any good pictures
-Some people just lie about themselves
-Pictures can be faked or taken well out of context, women are particularly guilty it seems
-What you're looking for is mixed into a random bucket of people looking for anything from friends to one night stands
-There's no science behind online dating
-It seems no matter the case, odds are better just talking to people

So there are a few outliers, so what.


No there's a lot more than a "few"

Obviously there are a number of people out there that are making it work. If it's not for you, that's fine, but your failures don't speak for everyone


I think the point is despite our efforts it isnt working.

I mean the only other conclusion is I am a lot uglier then i think I am.

It's probably partially about looks, but it's also about like... what people are expecting out of a lot of those websites. If you roll with it, you'll do fine. If you lean into it, you're just gonna get KO'd.

If you're checking those apps every day, you're probably also tanking your "dating" elo.

Nah, I don't take them seriously and don't put much into them and I've only had a handful of likes. I had a convo with a girl that was looking for stuff I wasn't interested in. Tons of women there seem like they are only there because they are crazy af or unattractive and think they have no hope in finding a relationship offline.

That's one way to admit you're a virgin.

Didnt know tinder sucked that bad now a days.

Cant even see who you matched without paying? What a fuckin joke.

Shame as it used to be pretty good depending on location. Tinder social was also nice. Side stepped the meeting a stranger alone in public predicament and was an easy way for you and a friend or two to get laid.

If you don't have anything nice to say, say it on the internet.

You can see matches, but like Tinder coaxes you into buying gold by hiding people who have swiped yes to you behind a paywall

If you swipe and don't see matches forever it's usually just a bug that's showing bots that have had their accounts deleted btw

That's the second time you've admitted you've never had sex. Why are you repeatedly telling me things everyone already knows about you


This was a pretty bad comeback

Imagine the day when Tinder or OKC implement loot crates to their marketing scheme lmao


They basically already do with things like boosting and tokens.

What happened was Match.com made enough money off their shitty model that they could buy both Tinder and OKC and the massive audiences for both. So now every other platform has to adapt or die.

The worst "upgrade" is POF deleting your older messages and charging you for the ability to see if you have messaged someone before. And there's no way to hide profiles you've visited before.

Nobody, which is why these apps are trash because only cheap asses will bother with the money scam.

It was easy for me to find women who were interested in serious dating. I also found that it had more real profiles than some other sites.

My biggest problem with Tinder and Bumble is that the VAST majority of girls are traditionally attractive super basic club types that are completely inaccessible to guys who aren't also super basic club types.

There aren't many shut-ins and dorks. The "less-desirables" are all single moms, hideous boulders, and "they/thems" with neon mohawks.

Like, you would expect these apps to be full of introverted nerds considering it's THE only way to meet someone for them, but they just aren't there.
