Honestly, dating apps are one of the cases for a federated system. Use whatever frontend you want, no one person owns the backend so they can’t sleazily monetize you. Probably would need to be a bit more cryptographic than something like lemmy or mastodon though.
With activityhub gaining traction, I actually think it’s possible. You essentially self host your profile, which gets federated around. You swipe left/right, thereby accepting federation from a match of blocking.
Depends on how it is used. But I don’t think it should be used for the matching process itself though. Maybe to help match interest (tags) between each other, like giving a connection score between two of them, but other than that, I see no other privacy respecting way to use that.
Moreover, on which data would we train on? I don’t think there is any anonymized dating app dataset around.
Tbh, maybe someone should try making an open-source dating app.
You know what, being a dev myself that’s something I’ll try as a hobby project. We’ll see how it work out.

I know about:
Alova
As always someone already thought of it 😂.
I’ll take a look.
IDK much about it, but this exists:

This could work.
Could be a good idea to differentiate from exiating solutions.
Keep us posted pls.
Will do, but don’t expect anything for at least a few month. 😆
That’s what heroes do
If you need machine learning to match people, send me a message lol

Duolicious is one. Its user base is mostly 4channers though.
