What a boomer-ass sounding comment. Most of my friends met their partners on Tinder or Bumble, and so did I.

For people in more rural areas, shy people, or mid-life relationship-seekers/divorcees, dating apps are the absolute most efficient way of meeting people you wouldn’t otherwise normally get to.

Bot accounts may be a problem, but not everywhere, and not for everyone.

Personally, I can’t recommend dating apps enough. Boosted my confidence, made me better at conversation, allowed me to be pickier in my choices, and found me my soul mate.

yup met my spouse on Tindahhh.

Saying dating apps are dead is a silly take, maybe Tinder is dead, but there may be a new option (bumble, hinge? IDK I have a spouse).
