They are using tried and true addictive gambling techniques to keep you scrolling, and paying just for the hope of finding love. Happy Valentine's Day!Oh, by...
I definitely would torrent a movie, a car and a boyfriend. \s
While I don’t like your solution, it seems to be directed at a similar reason as to why fediverse communities are generally nicer (I also don’t think federated dating apps are a good solution), because the communities are hosted willingly by people who are part of the community.
Even if somebody has to shoulder the costs, and the website is driven by donations, it’s hard to scale that into something profitable, and the community comes out better from that. I remember reading that craigslist started as a local email list. Maybe the solution for dating apps would be to make them hyperlocal systems rather than generic multinational hyper-individualistic one-size-fits-all solution.
(In my experience, it’s also rather cringe seeing apps like tinder trying to use gringo marketing techniques over here)
Hell yeah peoples dating site. You have to read a line of theory to log in. Extreme moderation so if you send an unsolicited dick pick or are a chud you get instantly banned.

The USSR literally had events for single young people to encourage them to bone down and have kids so yeah, this isn’t without precedent
This sounds very interesting. Can you point me in the direction of a source?
It was some article I read years ago, I’ll try and dig it up.
Also there’s a Soviet Czech movie where they show an event like this, but again I’m blanking on the name.
