And the narcissistic aggressive assholes made it 1000x worse for everyone else...
So many "upgrades" were made to "protect" people but all that really amounted to was: people won't see your messages unless they already like you (so no introducing yourself). Message limits so you can only send one new message a day, so for us guys who get ignored 99.9999999999% of the time we're now stuck on the site 10000x longer. No browsing method, only swiping so people "disappear" once you've made a decision in that moment. Etc etc...
Now sites like plenty of fish have fucking live steaming .... Talk about narcissists... They even have messages like "not looking, only here to stream." They're just milking the desperate guys who throw money at them for validation or whatever...
Dating, especially as a 30+ in 2024 is disgustingly depressing...
