Non-Profit Dating App does anyone think a non-profit dating app is necessary to combat the toxic nature of the Match Group corporation? in my opinion, the Match Group is causing more harm to people than any other company, essentially the cigarette company of 2026 that people are ignoring. any startup app would be acquired by them or sued for patent infringement. a non-profit actually has a chance. |
Every dating app is incentivized to be corrupt in some way, and just not just in the storing/selling data.
What many people don't realize is that for many people, they don't really "work" until you start to pay.
Then once you do, they are incentivized to keep you on as long as they can (I've actually seen the profiles in my feed change after paying them to be 90% people outside my area/preferences/etc).
I'm not exactly sure how a non-profit one could work, however, aligning the interests of the app with the people using it would be a pretty huge step.

Its to the point I've heard a saying, that while I forgot the proper term basically alluded to the pin at the bottom of the haystack. That is to say to swipe left on every 'high ranking' guy just to finally find someone thats actually interesting and not just what the algo thinks is attractive.
