Adina M. Yoffie: I'm not denying the algorithm is another, probably more significant, but I don't know, factor.

As a social media skeptic, I enjoy these articles about people giving up dating apps and touching grass. But I really think they downplay the enshittification process. I don't care what the executives say. Of course the algorithm refuses to match compatible people. www.vox.com/even-better/...

Delete your dating apps and find romance offlinewww.vox.com It's not as scary as you might think.

If you meet someone and fall in love, you will delete the app! Their entire business model is keeping engagement up. So of course all they will serve up to female users is a non-stop stream of fuckboys. I bet having a good job and interesting hobbies kills you on the algorithm, if you're a man.

This assumes that all men with good jobs and interesting hobbies aren't already in relationships and even use the app in the first place.

It doesn't but nice try. But thanks for reminding me why I hate social media: The competitive self-righteousness makes people nonsensical fast.

I'm not denying the algorithm is another, probably more significant, but I don't know, factor.
