I wonder, are Bumble struggling right now because no-one can meet for a real date? Or are they doing well, because no-one can meet for a real date?
Or maybe it's irrelevant and no-one is doing lockdown properly anymore anyway.
- polote 6y agoBumble business model is not related to people going on date, rather to guys matching more girls. And both things are very poorly linked
- hammock 6y agoProbably inversely linked!

- iamsb 6y agoI paid for bumble during the pandemic mostly to meet people closer to me who were looking for lock down buddies. Not a romantic or sexual relationship, but a platonic one using the BFF mode it offers. I did meet few interesting people around with that.
