> which if I understand them correctly means that it's hard to meet people without it

It means it (Tinder) no longer works. I says nothing about difficulty of meeting people outside of Tinder.

So a missunderstanding then I read it as:

If you want to meet people don't use Tinder, [not using twitter] used to work well in the past, it very rarely works now.

ah, if you wanted to say it that way in English, you'd say

"If you >don't< want to meet people don't use Tinder"

the way it's phrased means (unambiguously) that Tinder sucks, and Tinder doesn't work
