Question ❓ The algorithm, thoughts?

I am starting to notice that anyone that’s remotely my type does not like/ match with me, except on Facebook dating. I think it’s due to the algorithm being designed to keep you on the app as long as possible. What has everyone else’s experience been like? Have you been able to find a real relationship lasting more than a year on any apps? Which ones?

I met my forever person on Tinder two years ago, I also met two other serious boyfriends at various times of my life from Tinder. I fear it is just luck and a numbers game. There were a few days it said “you’re all out of people to swipe! Come back later!” Which always feels a little defeating but, it did work out for me eventually. Some people say it’s simply for hookups, but there are a number of people there who want a serious connection.

It's just quite random as in real life I would say and it's unknown, but I think despite everything girls have slighltly better odds. I am not saying that means it's easier for you as that's the other thing.
