They are a privacy nightmare and also trying to milk you for profit.
They have little to no incentive to find you a partner, they want you to keep using (and paying for) the app. They profile you, they sell all your data and to make things worse there are four(-ish) large companies running it all. They offer multiple apps and just combine all the data in large databases. I would argue they are worse than regular social media, given you share intimate details about you on these apps.
Also the lack of Arch-using cuties in my life. That problem might also be addressed.
Thanks for the reply, the privacy angle makes sense.
Do tech folks still do meet ups? I am not a computer person myself but apparently they are my type lol. In my 20s and 30s my partners were involved in the tech scene in my city and boy howdy people sure were boinking a lot.
