I'll admit it's not hard for me to get a date since, well, I'm the product dating apps are selling. But it's genuinely hard to meet like... friend friends. Lots of guys who wanna bang and thats fine, but none that I'd wanna play D&D or HD2 with. And no women, even on the "meet platonic friends" apps they just serve men. Honestly, its getting pretty disgusting how they commodify their userbase in a way that reinforces the exact kind of social isolation that fuels the problems with society that spawns incel culture, all to extract "premium memberships" with the promise of oneday going on dates with women who are never even given an opportunity to know they exist.

... I'm ranting but I genuinely just hate this shit.
