 I've never used or thought about online dating apps in my entire life but the concept just randomly penetrated my consciousness and wow that is fucking bleak

 Don’t do it. Don’t break. I promise. It’s not worth it

 @🌲Hidden🌲 a dating app is just like an online marketplace of ideas except souls aren’t marketable so all of the ideas are about casual sex 

I’ve never been on one myself and would rather get intimate with a woodchipper than try one, but my friends’ experiences on them are enough to make me want to nuke a city 

niche dating sites can be hilarious though. Besides scandals like the ashley madison leak, there’s also insufferable things like this: https://youandiq.com (the cert is invalid because they are probably defunct now, but I clicked through and you can still see their home page)

 @🌲Hidden🌲 I've considered setting up a "female" profile on dating apps (obviously it would clearly say it's not) and finding cool friends that way, a coworker showed me who pops up there and some of the guys seem very dope. fun activities and everything
