All of which will be like 98% men.

I found my wife on OKCupid back in 2010, before online dating became an utter cesspool of dick pics and matches based purely on attractiveness with no consideration for actual matching by personality.
Really, if I were to ever be back in the dating pool, Tinder in general would be my last choice.
plus bars skew by demographic and event. used to work at bars and restaraunts near hospitals -- 9am shift changes means people want beer at 10am -- and dated a couple of nurses because of it. find the punk rock bar, or nerd event at the bar, etc.
if you're only willing to do low effort interactions through an app then you're only going to get low effort partners, who will dismiss you based on one bad photo.
