I paid $0 for the app I met my wife on.

Same.

It was MySpace.

Which app, and how long ago was it?

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago (2 children)

OkCupid for me and we've been together over 10 years now.

Yeah same meme then. OKC and every other dating site have gone so far down hill they're underwater at this point.

I was on OKC 10 years ago and I really liked it. I'm OKC now and my fucking god is it useless... It's tinder 2.0 along with every other dating site Match Group bought... Oh and it's like $50+ a month if you're crazy enough to pay.

I'm sure I'll still be on there in another 10 years when it's just swiping from live stream to live stream...

Yikes! I make sure to buy my wife flowers ASAP. I don't want to end up dating again.

Things have gotten a hell of a lot worse since then

Tinder 2020 for me, we get married in August.

[–] huquad@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

Tinder 2016, the glory days. From what I hear, that shit is a cesspool now

I paid a little bit and met my wife on one. No idea why anyone has a problem with paying for something they use. Two children later, I would say a lifetime the woman of my dreams made the few months that I paid for the tinder subscription was worth it. There were useful features then that came with it. No idea about it now.
