OkCupid was great in those years. I remember how each person felt like a nuanced individual and not like the elevator pitch of a person.
Since then I've only been meeting people in real life. I agree that using tindr felt miserable and probably still does.

- ProllyInfamous 3y agoI have not used any dating app in the past decade. OKC was last platform, while in graduate school. I LOVED the "percent match" but across multiple profiles (over a few years) I learned how "to game" their system by only answering certain impactful (but not damaging) questions. If you have not read Christian Rudder's "DATACLISM" book (he is a co-founder of Match group, writing on their data analytics blog), it is FULL of "human condition", via charts/diagrams/analysis. My past two relationships have been via dating neighbors, which I do not actually recommend (as more successful).
- nunez 3y agoOkCupid was awesome. I met my wife there ten years ago. We were a 93% match! Had many of the same (or similar) answers to the personality questions. Interestingly, a few months before meeting my now wife, I dated a girl I met on Meetup who also happened to be on Match. Our relationship only lasted a few months. We were a 72% match or something like that. Go figure!
