Basically title, every bit of online dating nowadays is either Match or Meta, and we’re all about breaking corporate chains right?
So these are the thoughts I had:
-
Matches based on simple user selection: age range, lifestyle, hobbies etc. None of that dumb algorithm stuff that makes you reset your profile every month.
-
ActivityPub protocol so that anyone can run their own instance, but can also be blocked if anything heinous happens.
-
E2EE for messaging (and anything else if it’s possible).
-
Someone wrote an open-source anti-CSAM script for Lemmy recently, I hope we could adapt that to our use.
-
Just, like, everyone have a good time on this app, we’re here for love lol
I am not a coder, so I would have no idea how to do this, but I wonder about the interest in such a creation. Maybe some of you out there could make something I could use to get a date (pls).
Yep. Dating services are hard mode for the network effect, because you need to find a bunch of users that are close to you.
Aye. Would kinda defeat the purpose if there’d be noone near. And the chances that one person near you does also like you is… Well… Let’s say, it sucks for the majority of men.
I’d actually guess the man would leave first most of the time. There’s way too many dudes that rely on dragnet mass messaging to anyone they find attractive, to the point where they make it difficult for all the other men.
Aye. Pointless.
