Dating apps are places where you find people who are looking for a relationship, that's all.
I don't know anyone who says Tinder or whatever app is "for" long term relationships. But I do know people who would say that not going for short relationships is a good way to never end up with a long one.
Technically they are correct. Long term relationships necessarily arise from short term relationships. It's just how time works. Whereas tugging on a one armed bandit for luck is mutually exclusive with investing.
