The problem with dating apps is that there is an inherent divide, and Match Group (the company that owns pretty much all online dating apps) actively exploits this. Lonely men are deliberately targeted and charged more for services. It may seem silly or nonsensical from above, but for many young men apps like Tinder are the only way of finding "love" they've ever known and they directly equate swipes (or the lack thereof) with their desirability and prospects.
OLD used to be a great way to meet people. However, helping people establish meaningful longterm connections and stop using the service isn't a sustainable business model.
