doesn't really feel like i'm exercising any agency
Self harm with the apps how? You get literally zero matches or some shit?
doing a bunch of work at social bullshit to subject myself to a psychological torture machine I have no control over and get no productive feedback from when ignored or rejected sounds like a really bad time. It's ~~exactly th-~~ literally worse than job seeking (which is bad enough to make me cw suicidal) because hiring someone is profitable and matching off users loses customers.
