I prefer web over app. I tried a site which was said to be free. signup was fine so i started to use the site only to realise to see my matches or start chats i had to pay for a “premium” account or something. that really annoys me and it’s a waste of my time so does anyone know any good dating sites which are actually free, as in i don’t have to pay to use the site for what it should be used for? thx in advance 👍
oh and I’m looking for men, forgot to specify lol
What differentiates a dating site from something like Lemmy? The secret matching algorithm?
I thought I found a match on Lemmy but it turns out she wasn’t interested in anything committed, as she was messaging a lot of other Lemmings and getting close to them too. I confronted her about it but she tried to cover her tracks by changing accounts, repeatedly. I know you’re out there somewhere Nicole, and I forgive you, we just wanted different things.
lmao, The Fediverse Chick!
I got through the first half and was thinking to ask if it was Nicole you were talking about. NGL, you had me.
You could definitely use lemmy for dating if you wanted to. But dating apps offer eg. geographic filtering and (at least should!) do a much better job of guiding users to make meaningful profiles. Lemmy has no need for such.
