I’m just wondering, no particular reason.

Did you find a partner using it? How long did you use it? What did you think about it? How many matches did you get? What problems did you see? Do you think its a good way to meet other people? What did you use it for / what was your intention?

Just in general, what was the experience like?

    I (20 Year Old Male for context) tried a few except Tinder (I’ve always been told Tinder is just for Hookups).

    Did you find a partner using it? Nope. I met my current partner after ditching the apps, while looking for people to play Stardew with of all things.

    How long did you use it? About a week for each.

    What did you think about it? It struck me as exploitative of people’s loneliness and very reductionist with reducing the process down to something with no human interaction. I’d almost go as far to say it’s dehumanizing.

    How many matches did you get? 1.

    What problems did you see? There’s the aforementioned exploitation. It kind of makes it harder in my opinion to get to know anyone like you would traditionally.

    Do you think it’s a good way to meet other people? I don’t think so. I wouldn’t say it never works, but I don’t think chances are high.

    What did you use it for / what was your intention? I was looking for a long term partner and relationship.
