I agree. The only problem is that building a dating app user base is extremely difficult and capital intensive. You couldn't be cashflow positive quickly (or maybe ever).

In my large US city, even some of the big-name apps (like Coffee Meets Bagel and Match) had almost no active users.

I think it would only work if you tacked it onto an existing social network, like Instagram or TikTok, but you'd need the parent company's blessing (which almost certainly wouldn't happen).

I was thinking big-bang crowdfunding per region to kick it off. If you can't pull that off, then yeah, there aren't a lot of other good options.
