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).
If it’s on Lemmy it would be a hilarious political purity test to see who could virtue signal harder. It would be insufferable. That’s why most users don’t have any kids or spouses. I honestly couldn’t think of a worse place to set up a dating service.
I had to look up „virtue signaling“ because I‘m old.
