People were not speaking for very long conversations in general, they were happy to start a chat, but never really cared to continue it. Which always makes me say, that people registered on these apps are not really here for dating, but more for entertainment purposes.

Strikes me as completely backwards. Read many, many women's profiles that said they're not there to chat. For myself, I only want a quick chat and then a date if all seems well. Also, the more you chat, the lower the chances of an actual date. Too easy to be misunderstood or make assumptions when 80% of communication (physical) is out the window.
