OkCupid started out as some kind of student project and actually worked really well. Online dating wasn't any worse than any other dating until it was monetized and optimized for engagement.

I have a colleague who met their wife through OKC, someone in my family did as well, and they went to work there as a result just before Match bought them. He watched it destroy the service in realtime, apparently it was so bad that he rejected capitalist modes of production in all things subsequently.

If I were to do online dating as a lesbian what site/app would i use? Im too socially isolated here in suburbia and driving 40+ minutes to a place where I might meet people is too much

You live in suburbia, doesn't it take you 40+ minutes just to get out of your subdivision?

it takes me 10 to get down the hill and a toll to go much further than that. Another 30 - 50 to get anywhere noteworthy, but its really the parking that makes me hate it.

oh to get drunk at a gay club and stumble home, maybe in a better world
