I think the reason is more prosaic: The Dead Sea Effect.
People do meet partners on dating apps https://old.reddit.com/r/bayarea/comments/17fr0hy/anyone_who_successfully_met_someone_in_bay_area/ https://old.reddit.com/r/bayarea/comments/17fr0hy/anyone_who...
The majority of well-matched people rapidly exit. The population begins to trend to weaker participants. And the longer the duration the more unhappy and therefore weaker the participants become.
New dating apps capture representative populations and rapidly all the good participants exit.
Ultimately some of us suck at dating apps. The apps would be legitimately better without serial failures on them. I would have been better off in the real world, where I met my wife at work.
