I've always found to have more luck on dating sites like Plenty of Fish and OKcupid than I do on the more modern dating apps.

I don't know if any of them do this today, but I really liked the ones that had personality quizzes and matched people to you via personal compatibility.

Those personality tests netted me several relationships and 2 consecutive marriages.

To me, I see that as highly effective.

I want one based of Spotify recommendations.

That's actually a really good idea.

You can tell a lot about a person by the flavor of their earworms.

There is one that does that but its mostly focused towards alt/goth/metal people.

OkCupid is terrible, it's basically just Tinder at this point, in fact the literally all owned by the same company anyway.

That's really sad to hear. It was a uniquely user driven platform back in the day.

Its fall was like when pre-2023 Reddit became modern Reddit.
