The tactics these dating apps use against men are straight evil :dead:

You sign up and immediately they show you the hottest women "in your area" :dead:

Then you get notifications that women have looked at your profile, and you now have a message in your inbox, but it's locked so you have to pay the subscription price to unlock it :deadrose:

Then after you look at 5 profiles you have to go premium in order to see more đź’€

OKCupid is a perfect example of this, sh*t was lit from 2006 - 2012, open market, you can look at any profile and message any woman you choose to. Then they slowly switched it up to the point where the site is unusable.

Bumble is like this also. You’ll swipe and swipe and get like 10 matches but have 80+ likes in the blurred out “who likes you” section. You pay to look at that only to discover it’s women who live 80 miles away, bots, land whales, and other undesirable women smh :hhh:

The only paid app that produces the best results, if can even call it that, is hinge

Hinge was literally the only service I ever paid for. $20 for like 3 months was a good damn deal in 2019.

Plenty of fish was lit.
Ngl, I got my body count soooo high off POF. Best dating app for brehs trying to get some from regular/average jawns.

Could only pull 1 Latina and she was half white but....sistas and pawgs ages 25 to 50 was like a buffet line. Single moms with kids that are older was the sweet spot for fukkery. The women just wanted some weekend dikk and a man to cook for. They barely wanted to talk during the week. That's the dream for a 20-something man.

the sink is shipping for dating apps. the stock has been going down for months and it's only going to get worse. people arent paying for it as much anymore and everyone burnt out from it. the apps played too many games and got greedy now people are turned off by them. gonna be interesting to see what happens to them over the next few years.

Dating apps is the only business model on earth where they treat the paying customers as 2nd class citizens and give them a shytty experience. So you telling me the nonpaying customers (women) are more flaky and inconsistent than ever, and men get no ROI for paying from roses / upgrades / subscriptions?

Youre telling me that the paying customers have the audacity to want a return on investment? :troll:

Hmmm why is this business model failing? :troll: Lets hire some Stanford economics professors to dig into this
