I met my wife through Yahoo Groups back in 1999. My friend met his wife through Tinder in 2018 and just got married. They're tiny data points, but I don't think there's a problem with the apps in that respect. You can still find like minded people online and over time form friendships - used to be the way to do it was newsgroups, then forums, now it's probably MeetUps and Discord. I don't think things have changed, but as I've gotten older (I suspect you're getting older too ;) it has become harder to make friends - which by all accounts is normal.
