It’s so obviously designed primarily to get you to spend money on it, not to help you meet people. Some people have liked me, but despite daily swiping, I have no matches. It’s clearly hiding them to get me to pay. On top of that, I had to verify my profile several times as well because I kept getting locked out of my account. It also deleted my bio because it thought I was sharing a social media handle (because how dare you chat to somebody outside of Tinder).
And before anyone calls me a fool for continuing to use it, I’m deleting my account right now lol.
When it comes to dating, nothing tops just going out and meeting people face to face without predatory apps acting as a “middleman”.


speak for yourself. i have a dog for 5 years. i only ever meet married people and people over 60+ at the dog park.
there are no young single people at my dog park, besides myself.
hell just walking around, in a major city, only people who are 50+ will ever stop and say hi to my dog. nobody under 40 (my own age) will interact with my dog or me, if anything often they move to the other side of the street to avoid us. but if hte person has grey/white hair they are more than happy to smile and ask to pet my dog.
Y’all have dog parks? /s
Tap for spoiler
There actually is one in my town now, i think.
Might be a local culture thing. Where I used to live, I constantly had people of all ages and genders coming up to me, asking about the dogs, gushing over them, inviting the dogs to the bar, etc.
The funny thing about the culture in Germany, is I don’t live in Germany.
So it doesn’t matter to my life. What matters is the culture where I live, in my city.
Why post in a community for casual conversations if you aren’t interested in other people’s experiences?
