    Tinder used to be good 'til around 2016. After that it’s been downhill hard. Last couple times I’ve tried it, I noticed that it literally avoids showing you profiles that have liked you. In my case, I had “45” likes, yet after 300 swipes to the left, that number didn’t go down.

    No wonder people just make the profile, leave their instagram handle on a photo or their bio and abandon tinder altogether.

    I’ve had more success with bumble, though it’s been 2 months that that piece of shit refuses to recognize my location, which makes everything refuse to work. Permissions are all ok, gps is working, but the app can’t get my position. Customer support is an unhelpful bot that points to the FAQ.

      I’ve heard good things from other people about Bumble, and I literally met my last girlfriend (of 3 years, we broke up recently, my heart may never recover) on it.

      Cancelling a Bumble subscription is also no easy feat.
