Who's shocked.
My Male coworkers scroll hrs a daily for a match and get terrible options.
Meanwhile Female coworkers get overwhelmed with 100s and cannot possibly get the best fit for them. Horrible for both sides.

Not surprising at all, one conglomerate owns pretty much every single one of them, and it they're successful you don't need them anymore.
Most of them were full of bots and scammers even before the AI craze. I can only imagine how bad they are now.
I'll say that I had a good experience with Coffee Meets Bagel but that was years ago. Their gimmick at the time was that they only showed you up to 10 profiles per day so it didn't incentivize doomscrolling like Tinder.
GEE, I WONDER FUCKING WHY??? CLEARLY NOT BECAUSE OF ENSHITTIFICATION!!!
It's somewhat ironic that dating apps today are worse for their stated purpose than pre-2010 dating sites, which is a really low bar, mind you.
After Grindr started using PairIP and made this mod unusable: https://github.com/R0rt1z2/GrindrPlus, Grindr has become shit if you don't pay for it.
They are all now shit if you don't pay for it. Pof, okcupid, they are garbage. They used to work while silicon valley was still in it's growth phase, hen enshitified when they entered the maximizing revenue phase, which started perhaps a bit earlier with dating sites than other sectors like search engines.
