The mainstream apps owned by match group as well as bumble appear to have a lot of people like you describe. I am sure there are decent people on there also, it's just the signal to noise ratio sucks, as well as the whole gamified bullshit of the apps themselves. I uninstalled Tinder/hinge/bumble not long after trying them and I have no plans to return. I suspect people who would put up with the way tinder functions are the same people who would put up with forced ads on their phone and smart tv etc. I would not be a good fit for people like that.

I've had a lot of success on less mainstream apps by simply being honest about what I'm looking for (ENM / casual ongoing) and have found many with the same views.

Glad it worked out for you.

But I can't help but wonder what if when you met in person it wasn't what you were expecting?

Would it have felt like a waste of texting effort?

Relatively new to dating via apps as an elder millennial freed from a life time of monogamy. (Only been at it 6 months)

Who are these people who want to go on a first date that involves being in a situation like a restaurant?

Seems like with apps people skip the whole courting thing and jump straight in to something that should only be for once you get to know each other a bit better.

For me, first meeting is a coffee or a drink at a well populated cafe or bar. Maybe a walk after somewhere busy in the city.

Maybe I'm just old and out of touch.

It's interesting reading about the musical taste on here. I feel the average demographic of lemmy is mostly USA based late gen X guys.

Been listening to "EDM" since long before it was known as that. Remixing has been the way with electronic music since it's inception.

I liked the Skream remix, but the cut and run in for the pill bootleg worked a lot better on dance floors.

Capitalism prefers to outsource the child rearing to developing nations.

It welcomes immigration for young adults who are ready to be wage slave / tax payers.

At least 2 showers most days.

If I had to choose it would be shower before bed though.

Change sheets bi weekly at least.

I couldn't stop laughing when one of my kids showed me a picture of his 10 year old friend's effort with the texta. We are talking comical magician curly moustache. Roblox verified that account as 18 though and now that account can't talk to his school friends.

People ~~with terminal illnesses/in their last days~~ should be allowed to have any drugs they want.

 

TLDR: Howard, the source of most problems we face since his reign of destruction.

 

Since the last update I've noticed that gesture back stops working after a bit. Closing voyager and opening it again makes it work.

Also something slightly odd is happening with scaling where the app seems to take up less screen real estate randomly.

Pixel 7pro running Graphene.

 

Can't make this shit up, reality is beyond satire at this point.

This is the same media talking head who argued against Labor's fibre to the premises national broadband network. Who then brown noses NBN execs to get his own house upgraded to Fibre as a higher priority than anyone else.

Copper for thee, fibre for me.

What the hell happened to the federal ICAC anyway. Still waiting for all the politicians who spent billions buying back Telstra's rotten copper to go to jail.

 

The WA government is pressing ahead with its plan to create a motorsport street circuit in Burswood Park.

It is opening the community consultation process for the controversial new proposal.

But Treasurer Rita Saffioti has denied it will only be a motorsport track, saying it will be a "multi-use facility".

 

I thought it was odd that I've been able to enjoy this perfect weather instead of being holed up indoors to escape the smoke.
