maybe build a dating app that isnt shitty and mention it in meetup groups and see if it can grow?
Rather than that just setting up speed dating events, dances, etc. would yield better results for less effort. Or even setting up a matchmaker service...
I've thought about it. Putting aside the tremendous technical hurdles, bootstrapping a new dating app is hard. And what would make this one special?
I had an idea for some sort of trust network thing. Like you could vouch for your friends, and if they're assholes you lose reputation. But that doesn't work without a lot of people.
It would probably be easier to get rich some other way and just buy out Match group, and use that position to de-shittify their apps.
