It’s ok if the quantity of the matches goes down if the quality of the matches is good. I’m only looking for that one. My experience of dating apps is that I get inundated with likes or matches. Get discouraged by the large amount of bad matches. Panic delete the app rather quickly. I don’t think I’ve ever kept a profile active for more than like a week and a half. I never even kissed a guy I met through an app until I met someone I dated for a few months this year. I think I first used an app in 2008.

I see what you’re saying, but I think the criterion for dating apps is not conducive to your desired effects. It’s just an opinion, not a fact. But apps tend to focus on very superficial qualities that don’t seem like high quality indicators of compatibility to me.

Apps could focus on different criteria. What do you think are the most important things to focus on?

Something based on a clinically validated personality test, like Big 5, maybe Meyer-Briggs, love languages, and life goals/values.

Even then it’d probably be more miss than hit, but it would probably be better. It’d also take hours to set up your profile.
