Have you tried hinge or bumble? They address a few you of the issues you outlined.

Bumble is supposed to solve the problem, by allowing the women to make the first move, but 90% of first messages are: "Hi", "Hey", or "How is it going", and the ball is on you court again to keep the convo going.

My friends using it are having the same experience.

Saying "Hi" is a relatively good case. They bothered to type two characters. In my case, I have received a few times, a single dot (".") as their first message.

Honestly, this fits my experience as well.

I've had even less luck on bumble, actually, along with less women that I personally am interested in.
