Hey there!

Last year, I fell into the Fediverse-rabbithole and I really like it so far. We already have alternatives for Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram, Reddit and so on.

But today I realized, there actually isn't an alternative for tinder. But I think there could be a huge demand for it. This could also motivate people to change platforms, since no one wants to buy tinder premium for a lot of money.

But I think I'm maybe not the first one coming up with this idea. What do you think about this?

It has already happened to me. Too bad I can't afford a plane ticket to Canada.

EDIT: I didn't meant that part about the plane ticket seriously. And I didn't leak any DMs between us, because I never replied to her.

Every app is a dating app if you use it wrong enough.

A few weeks ago there was a screenshot going around "I met my wife in a github issue thread".

Yep, "she" sent me identical, unsolicited messages from three different profiles. Seems it got stamped out though.

I got this message too.

I got that one several times too, and saw screenshots of it elsewhere too. Not in a while by now though.
