I feel like the methodology has a lot of flaws that makes the error bars so large as to make the actual numbers in this study useless: 1. Small sample size 2.

I feel like the methodology has a lot of flaws that makes the error bars so large as to make the actual numbers in this study useless: 1. Small sample size 2. Inactive profiles 3. These apps actually adjust the profiles you see based on your attractiveness level. I know they at least categorize attractiveness because I've had this experience when Bumble seemingly had a bug where I would suddenly get a ton of profiles that were clearly super-attractive people, then get a bunch of profiles that were clearly the exact opposite (no profile images, dark or random pictures, and :ahem: not so conventionally attractive people). However, the general point stands: The majority of women will like a minority of men on these apps. As such, as a man, if you want to make this work for you, the basic strategy is to get as highly attractive pictures of you as possible (professional if you can) and pictures of you doing various interesting activities (as opposed to just vanity shots). Then, keep swiping right and follow up on all matches. But don't make this your only source of meeting women, as others suggested, spend a lot of time in places where you can meet women in real life.
