Basically title, every bit of online dating nowadays is either Match or Meta, and we’re all about breaking corporate chains right?
So these are the thoughts I had:
-
Matches based on simple user selection: age range, lifestyle, hobbies etc. None of that dumb algorithm stuff that makes you reset your profile every month.
-
ActivityPub protocol so that anyone can run their own instance, but can also be blocked if anything heinous happens.
-
E2EE for messaging (and anything else if it’s possible).
-
Someone wrote an open-source anti-CSAM script for Lemmy recently, I hope we could adapt that to our use.
-
Just, like, everyone have a good time on this app, we’re here for love lol
I am not a coder, so I would have no idea how to do this, but I wonder about the interest in such a creation. Maybe some of you out there could make something I could use to get a date (pls).
Somehow you’d want to continuously federate new instances to keep the userbase connected.
Federated or not, dating sites don’t work well
I’m getting married next week. Met her on Tinder. Sometimes they absolutely do work
I don’t think it federates, but there’s Alovoa, an open source dating platform.
