I imagine the scope of it makes things worse as well. Like when there are only a few compatible people in your area you'd just go fuck it and go on a few dates. When there are hundreds of dating "resumes" to sift through there's probably all sorts of emergent behaviour that's tough to account for. Hell, just the genetal idea of it gives me anxiety.
The ones trying to do more traditional compatibility dating still have that aspect and it feels even more insane. There's one that targets more careerist types and I have a feeling everyone on there is just Patrick Bateman.

I got married before the "swipe" thing really took off.
I don't think I'd be able to handle it. It sounds obnoxious and dehumanizing.

those types seem to be pretty common on most dating apps as it is. like even on Tinder which is supposed to be a hook-up app for the most part
