Seriously, how do you even get the data to make such graphs?

On another note, I don't have much sympathy for people who clearly "swipe right on everyone". I am aware that it's a numbers game, but have since standards, man.

Bro he got 14 matches in four years, how can he afford to have standards. If he has any more standards, he will get ZERO matches

Also you can request this data from tinder and bumble support

You won't get any matches if you don't tell the algorithm what kind of person you're interested in. It won't be able to put you with people you're compatible with.

I'm interested in: people that breathe

I find that this isn’t actually a successful way to filter or get the “algorithm” to recognize people you might be interested in. Those features are built in, but you need the premium versions of the apps to do the filtering.

I hopped onto Bumble after a few years and nearly every one I get doesn’t match my values or how I swipe. I thought it might work like that, but I get Christian Conservative more than any other demo and my profiles and swipes do not match that type.

These apps are not interested in finding you a good partner, they are solely interested in you continuing to use the app

Not gonna lie, a few years ago it worked on me. Paid for the Premium, but didn’t get any better results. The gamified dating scene is bad but meeting people organically just doesn’t seem to happen as I get older.

I think it depends on where you live. I get almost no Christian conservatives, but I live in Seattle, so they're pretty rare here.

You are talking to a person with a 0,295623% chance of getting a match...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

That's a bit high standards for me.

use a simple counter for your left and right swipes, then you just need to count the matches and which ones fizzle out
