Dating apps are bullshit

I was scrolling through hacker news and found this Young women fall out of love with dating apps | Hacker News (ycombinator.com)

I personally never used a dating app before, only because like I knew they were bullshit from the beginning. These dating apps were created by publicly tradeable companies, meaning they have to continuously turn a profit year by year and increase those margins by X in order to please the shareholders. The idea of the app is dating, yes. Still, the end goal for them is to squeeze as much as possible out of their consumer. Their objective isn't to get you a date it is to make money off you.


Prediction:

When these dating apps (which they already are) start to fall apart, I think these companies will create fake accounts to deceive their shareholders and increase their stock prices. This will probably end in a class action lawsuit against the SAID company.
