I think that leak is probably why this kind of analysis is possible at all.

Thank you for introducing me to this website.

Be thankful that the app is filtering out the bad apples in advanced.

It's more about their hobby of defamation and libel.

Yeah, that part really shows the entire methodology of the article is bullshit.

And then there’s the phrase. Post after post across the app uses some version of the same line: “he collects women like Pokémon cards.” That’s not a joke somebody made once. That’s the app’s house insult, used so often it might as well ship with the keyboard. The man on the receiving end doesn’t even have to play. You could have never touched a card in your life and still catch this one.

They're proving that this instance of a negative mention of Pokemon doesn't even have to do with someone being interested in the hobby which is the entire premise of the article. But they never mention filtering for this, and then just go on to say that liking Pokemon is the worst hobby stats wise. Not that I'm expecting perfect methodology for something like this, but this is a pretty fucking glaring issue they even openly admit but somehow don't see the problem with it.

Saying someone collects women like Pokemon cards is just an insult about someone being a player, it doesn't have anything to do with someone's hobbies. It could easily be said as collecting women like any other commonly collected item.

It has an fdroid application and their whole thing is about being open source and ad free, so I assume the people using it are one of us

*edit

the app is a waste of time, fails to create an account but you can on the website. then fails to log in.

stick to the website and create a webapp for it

conventions and pen and paper rpg groups are the best bet.

They require video or id confirmation. It's creepy as hell. Either a "video selfie" or give photo id

If men did the same thing to women, people would have a much different reaction.

And I get that sexism makes it completely reasonable for women to act differently and/or defend themselves but that's not what this is.

Clearly the author pulled a Slowpoke card

Your phone explodes in your hand when it detects testosterone or the patriarchy.

I'm old so maybe not relevant, but I think all those dating apps are stupid.

One, the dating app provider doesn't want you to find a match because you'd stop using the app, they want endless engagent.

Two, I hear my younger coworkers and youth say they couldn't find a match, because none of them were good looking enough. So all the suggestions they ignored based on a picture. This really isn't how you find a good life partner, this skips interaction and personality connections that you get in live encounters.
