    imagine being a snob on Tinder

    I don’t understand these shitty sites/apps. I really, really hope they are just a fad that will completely die out in a couple more years and we can collectively get back to figuring out how to do this shit in a world where third spaces do not even exist anymore.

      It’s unfair to even call them “dating apps” as if a majority of the people in those apps even get to go on dates regularly with them. They’re basically cassino slot machines, but with faces instead of symbols, and affection instead of money. Their entire business model is based around either keeping people scrolling or fooling people into paying thinking it’ll help them find somebody. It won’t, not only does it make people look extra desperate, it also creates a negative incentive to helping them find somebody.
