Yeah being a lonely male of average or lesser looks on tinder will definitely improve your mental state.
Tinder is absolute trash and only helpful to attractive people who just want some one night stands. If you're actually looking for a relationship, don't install any apps and try to meet new people in real life instead.
This is just provably untrue. You might have more relationship-weighted encounters off-app, but to say that it's unhelpful if you don't want a relationship is false.
on what grounds is this false
Well people do find relationships via dating sites, although quite possibly not tinder.
I know four or five couples from my friend group that met online.
Yes some people get lucky but I'm certain 90% of tinder users won't find their long-term relationship through tinder. Therefore tinder is, for most, a waste of time and effort and possibly even money.
