    Dating is primarily done through websites driven by profit driven algorithms (coincidentally it’s much more profitable to keep you on the app than it is to actually get you to a date)

    In my vision of a socialist future, we still have dating apps but they're tooled to match you with people that you will actually connect with and have the best potential to have a fulfilling relationship with.

    IMO, dating apps are good. Great for people like me who really struggled with approaching people and asking them out. It's their implementation under capitalism that sucks.

      Yeah. This is true for most technologies. In and of themselves they are neither good nor bad. The question is how they are wielded and to whose benefit.
