When I’m looking for cars to buy on fb market or Craigslist, I use very general terms and never the feature filters like transmission, drive train, body style, even fuel type. So many people enter the wrong thing (it doesn’t matter if is done knowingly or on purpose because the result is the same), or don’t enter any information at all and it is unclear if the search function will include null fields (usually it does not). Instead, I browse the list and now that Facebook curates it via some opaque algorithm, it is unclear if I get to see the “full list”. I would guess people on dating sites are using the same logic. If I can’t trust the filters, just give me everything and I’ll sort from there. When the stakes are as high as finding a life-parter, or even someone you can trust to be intimate with, the cost of a missed opportunity is just too high.
