I have been on Tinder, Happn for a long time and previously on Lexa, Relatieplanet and another such site. I just thought it was all very interesting and the “psychological side” of it was also well explored; what works in your profile text, what doesn’t… how does it work if I post less nice photos myself (still dates, each and every one of them said “you’re actually much nicer than your photos”), that kind of thing.
I may have viewed many of those 47,842 profiles over time. But also got dozens of dates out of it. Tinder and Happn in particular worked well in that regard. There are of course also fake profiles (and also women who promote their professional services or Onlyfans profiles), but you can easily filter them out yourself.
Seriously, Tinder is way more fun and more successful than people think. It’s just a matter of how you feel about it… if you can’t handle swiping for 3 days and only having 3 matches who don’t talk, then it’s not your way of meeting people.
Are you relaxed, do you understand that people sometimes swipe out of boredom, but are already dating seriously and leave your conversation “open” in case something goes wrong with the serious date (you probably do that yourself sometimes!), then you go really having a lot of fun with it.
You can easily get a few dozen matches within a few days. If you don’t get any responses to your messages, think about whether your approach could be more fun. Try to be really unique and stand out from all the horny cousins on the app (because the number of unwanted nasty messages that women receive on the app is really not funny anymore).
By the way, it seems to make a big difference WHERE you Tinder. I lived in Amsterdam at the time, which seems to be quite different from swiping in a farming hamlet.
Finally, I see that the gentleman from the graphs has swiped almost everything to the right (that is giving a “Like”). Tinder’s algorithm gives your profile a low score. So it doesn’t surprise me that he has “only” 298 matches.
If you are a bit more critical, you are more likely to swipe right 10 to a maximum of 25%, I think that is normal behavior. Then you won’t end up in the “drain” of Tinder and you will be shown more. Somewhere behind the scenes you get a score of the number of likes & matches you get compared to your swipes.
