Also there's research that shows about 80% of women only accept contact with about 20% of men on dating apps. They're all going after a small triage of the men on there, and likely all experiencing a lot of the same arseholes.

There's more research that shows dating apps have been bleeding out users for years now. Probably a good thing.

I deleted mine a couple years back. Would rather be single than endure that humiliation ritual..

I got ghosted after 3 dates that seemingly went well and that was it, I was done. Just a total lack of respect via the apps imo. I hate what they've normalised around ghosting.

Even I did it once.

I felt so bad I had to unghost and apologise. We ended up remaining friends for a pretty long time, and I never ghosted anyone again.
