Dativerse when? Seems like this is ripe for disruption by a free solution
There's this pleroma instance and this github project.
I've thought about it before. The thing is with all the images getting loaded so much it would get expensive quick.
I think the bots and scammers would pose a much bigger problem
And wait til you see the pool of actual candidates.
Easy solution: date the bots and scammers!
I think those could be dealt with, but just the sheer bandwidth of someone loading 3-10 images per profile and then rapidly flicking through them and onto the next one...
The storage costs would be one thing, but the bandwidth of that would be another entirely.
As much as I'd like to think that people would donate, I've found the majority of people to be pretty cheap and unwilling to donate money for something they can get for free.
Yet Lemmy exists right now with videos and everything
I think most major instances only allow linking to videos and won't allow you to directly upload it.
Yes, why can't Lemmy just work for that?
Just create a "City Nama, M4W/M4M/W4W/W4M.MM4W...etc"
That would work no?
No, because newer or more upvoted is not better. The way Lemmy is set up for news makes it bad for leaving a page up for your profile and getting people to look at it over time
There's no women on Lemmy tho.
Not with that attitude
Anyone can be a woman with the right leg and penis tuck strategy LOL.
It turns Into hookups and sexually explicit pics if reddit was anything to go by. But if it was for relationships not just hook ups, I'd like it.
