I think what also people miss - is that by OkCupid requiring long form essays. the demographic would tend to be educated college folks - quirky gals studying humanities, chemistry etc. so you literally have a crowd of people who like reading, and are critical thinkers etc & most likely to be high earners too. but like every thing - the power of the lowest common denominator rules ie endless swiping on who you think is hot. this doesn't end with apps -- with forums gone -- you can hardly find places online where civilized discourse happens. now everything is just for the 'gram. or to go viral on tiktok.
