Dating apps are extremely broken, and yet they're almost all owned by a single c... | Hacker News

crazygringo 2 hours ago [-] Sorry, but they're not extremely broken. I worked at OkCupid 8 years ago, saw the issues they faced then and have seen the evolution of the apps since then, and right now they really areas good as anyone's been able to come up with that attracts enough active users to generate promising dates. If there were a drastically better solution, then it would take over the market. The last major innovation was when Tinder invented swiping and went mobile-first, a genius move which drastically cut down the spam women deal with and made it actually feel like a fun game instead of a chore. The fact is, despite all the work of psychologists and technologists, nobody's come up with a better, more efficient way of matching people

One retard suggest men pay women to message them:

vbtemp 4 hours ago [-] I had an idea for a dating app a while back, in which the basic idea is that you pay the service to message someone (above a free weekly limit of say 1 msg). The pricing would be reactive - as popular attractive people get more messages, the more it would cost to message them, growing exponentially in order to limit incoming messages to approx a few a day. Unpopular people who got few messages would have a price that would go down to zero. This would hopefully solve the problem of women getting hundreds of messages a day, and men getting neither any incoming messages nor any replies to their outgoing messages.

300+ replies of coping retards. Not a single comment even remotely black pilled.

Same old shit. Hard working high IQ types are scared shitless of even considering for one second that looks might matter. Procede to cope their lives away thinking their some magical shitty code that would make dating good for men.

That board probably has the highest concentration of wealth and IQ than any other board on the internet, yet every post they make it so mind boggling stupid as fuck.

 

[happiless]

I'm sick of tech. Cucks should be exterminated.

 

[grondilu]

What do they mean by "broken" ? It seems to me that those apps work very well.

Unless they are saying : "I don't get any match. That app must be broken.", but that can't possibly be what they mean, can it ?

What...?

 

[mylifeistrash]

What...?

The retard is assuming women would message guys who aren't chad.

That's exactly what they mean.

No way. No one can be that naive.

I am just stunned by this statement. Whenever I read such lines, I think of it as a joke or that they are trolling but most likely they are absolutely serious.

 

[NocturnalDecay]

I work in the tech field and you would not believe how people refuse to acknowledge that the blue pill is inherently flawed from the get go. These people for whatever reason think they are smart enough to distort reality they dont want to admit that looks are the reason why. I ask myself why they go down a rabbit hole that's only 3 inches deep; the reality is if you're not attractive in dating apps it's a fruitless endeavor it's that easy to comprehend yet they dont want to because they think theres more to it than meets the eye. You can see that even when presented with hard evidence they refuse to think that's its completely about looks.

The original post reads:

"Greensboro Man Creates Dating App Where He's the Only Guy Allowed"

and this is the man:

Coping Stemcels come up with ideas:

Idea 1: Charge chad for his messages (a.k.a. cockblocking chad):

I had an idea for a dating app a while back, in which the basic idea is that you pay the service to message someone (above a free weekly limit of say 1 msg). The pricing would be reactive - as popular attractive people get more messages, the more it would cost to message them, growing exponentially in order to limit incoming messages to approx a few a day.

Idea 2: Landwhale indicator:

I've got a better idea. Have a swiping system, but also have a simple indicator to see how often people respond to messages after first swipe. There could also be an indicator for how long those conversations typically last. Or you could just make it extremely simple: just have something saying "this person is X% likely to respond after a match."

Idea 3: Pay foids to DM incels:

Purely a thought experiment here: what do you think would happen if rather than making "ugly people" free to message, you incentivized the message? Pay $1 per message to a hot person, get paid $1 per message to an ugly person. I wonder if that market would find equilibrium.

and so on.

It's not like they are completely bluepilled. Some of them sound like quite blackpilled. Many of them are at least redpilled, like they acknowledge "money can boost SMV for betabuxxing" stuffs.

I've thought about making a new dating app. The existing apps suck for 2 reasons: in most markets men are at a significant disadvantage because of how men and women differ in the way they approach dating (and there's also a significantly unfair male:female ratio in many markets). Additionally, none of them are really designed to get people off the app, but rather they're built to increase engagement and keep people on the app.

One idea I've had is to disallow conversation in the app, and instead focus on making date plans if there's a match. Another idea is to introduce a payment aspect to make spamming economically unviable, except that the payment goes to the recipient instead of the platform. Some apps have tried things like this, but they kind of suck because it's not real money so it's not useful.

Silicon Valley is an incel capital anyway. So many of them are exposed to blackpill to some extent I guess. Also they are high IQ so they should be able to figure it out where is the real problem.

Anyway, it's really fun to see those coping stemcels.

Imagine being intelligent enough to go to the moon, but it can't get your dick wet. I'd get rather bewildered too.

Someone should make "personality dating app" where you're not allowed to post pictures of yourself. See how that works out. Guarantee no woman will even use it

It doesn't matter how smart you are and how much you actually contribute. If you're not Chad, it's over.

 

[Kent]

I dont' know if its been mentioned yet but the Harvard guys who created/owned OKCupid were confounded & aghast at the lack of women replying to the majority of men and the 80/20 rule actually being correct. Remember they went to Harvard so the innate IQ was there. Frustrated and dejected so much so that they bought the Tinder app. Crazy how highIQ look right past the obvious sometimes. You see this behaviour in left-wing politics as well.

[MaxZM98]

the main issue isn't looks. it's foid hypergamy/extremely high standards/ 80/20 rule. men care about looks probably as much as women but that doesn't stop women getting tons of matches. it's because we arent hypergamous.

yes, foids are rejecting you because of your looks, but it is because of hypergamy that most guys don't meet their looks-threshold.

That may as well be proof positive that intelligence is multi faceted and multi dimensional.

It's one of the few reasonable explanations for this. Another being that they're in fact aware, yet very careful in not revealing their true power level and risk their careers in this cucked, gynocentric soyciety.

Yes, the blackpill simply isn't "Looks matter the most." It is also about the contradiction between male and female sexuality (hence hypergamy)

and yeah men are about looks too, but are simply attracted to various women of different shapes and sizes.

I am dropping some blackpill bombs there.

as long as femoids have infinite choice and zero pressure, dating will become worse and worse until the 99 - 1 rule is realized. tell me how to make an app that disables a foid's entire internet presence and forces her into the job or marriage market by age 13 and I'll work day and night to make it. until then, we are cucked and there's nothing we can do about it. what we need is GLOBAL THERMONUCLEAR WAR

 

[TurboSubhumanCel]

They are low IQ by definition. Just busy bee slave workers. The only high IQ people are the Incels here and multimillionaire Chads.

The multiple intelligences theory is very real. I personally know some guys who are very successful professionally but are utter retards when it comes to other types of stuff, such as women, morals, etc.

[NoCopeNoHope]

These retards should stop inventing dating apps and start inventing female replacement robots instead. Fuck foids and what they want.

Females must be replaced.

Its because it challenges their world view in such a fundamental way that it makes them both angry and afraid. Imagine believing in a "just world" and fighting for feminism for many years, only to have some Jeremy Meeks tier societal trash chad fuck prime stacies and cuck you. It must absolutely infuriate them.

 

[mylifeistrash]

They are doing this to make money. They don't give a fuck about anything else. They never thought about it any other way.

There's no money to be made in dating aps. Investors don't give money to them. The match.com company bought most of them up, so the market will not change.

These guys are just theorizing why they "suck" because they personally do not get laid from them.

 

[Deleted member 236]

Why can't people acknowledge that women have the sexual power. It's like asking why a woman can't beat a man in a fight.

 

[Italcel]

final proof that IQ is meme?

 

[Righteous-Evil]

Esthetics are the hardest to fake. I believe this is why humans are hardwired to go after looks. It is also wy looks DO matter. And this is perhaps why silinerds won't touch it because "it must be something else"

Brutal.

Not so high iq are they now? If they don’t mention looks

I noticed that too. The funny thing is making the app gynocentric but I guess the funnier thing is that the creators/owners of said app don't realize that they themselves are the "spam" that is repugnant to foids.

JFL at thinking people in these High IQ jobs are hard workers, they should try hauling meat around a factory for 8 hours

yes, foids are rejecting you because of your looks, but it is because of hypergamy that most guys don't meet their looks-threshold.

All men are compared to the best looking man a foid has seen, the higher availability & reach via the internet raises the bar ever higher.

 

[Adamhastor]

If the app generates revenue, it works.
JFL if you think dating sites are there for you to get laid. The less successful you are, the more you pay for various shit options.
It was already the same before OLD and apps, matchmaking agencies worked exactly the same.
Cuck business model tbh

This and lots of men just wouldn't have made it very far if they weren't bluepilled, SOMETHING got them through their shitty early years and into the job market.

 

[Opus132]

Why can't people acknowledge that women have the sexual power. It's like asking why a woman can't beat a man in a fight.

Those people believe men and women are the same in everything. You see it in the entertainment they create, all those sci-fi shows with women kicking ass as if they were men and nobody bats an eye at the absurdity of it.

It's also the same people who will tell you this is actually music:



Basically, IQ and intelligence are not synonymous with one another. IQ is just cerebral virtuosity. It's like there's some people out there who can learn an instrument really fast and play better than 99% of people alive as if it was natural for them, but not everyone with this kind of talent can actually make good music, or understand music (people like Malmsteen still don't understand anything about classical music despite decades of being a musician).

Well, it's the same with high IQ people. Some people can just pick a book about advanced mathematics and learn it really fast, but that doesn't mean they can understand anything about reality. It's just an ability, like being able to run really fast, it doesn't mean their consciousness is actually advanced in any way.

The funny part is they don't even have to step outside their cubicles. The studies are clear as day on the tyranny of looks over the SMP. All they have to do is stop sniffing their own farts and look at what the experts have been saying for years.
