Federated Dating App? (lemm.ee)

I was trying to explain federated websites to a friend and she asked if there is a federated dating app. She recently went through a break up and the apps are dreadful as I'm sure many of you know.

It'd be hard to launch a dating system on the fediverse because it the type of service that relies heavily on network effects. People want to be on the dating app with the most people. However, I think there is an opportunity because the mainstream apps are so notoriously awful, monetized, and enshitified.

It could be a community within an existing network or it could be its own website. I don't know, I'm just putting the idea out there.

It's more how to keep the information between two people, such as messages. As we know, messages on Lemmy can be seen by admins

Right. I forgot about those. E2EE is probably especially necessary for a dating app.

You could give a handle for matrix chat for that.
