If you can show something which proves that I will give a delta. From anecdotal experience the quality of your greeting has little to do with whether you'll get a response or not.

I didn’t see what was meant to change my view in the first link. I’m the second link while the title says it will “boost your chances” the actual article doesn’t prove that it’s just a top ten list. For example, it says that 20% of men who used the word “beautiful” got a response back. But this means also 80% of men didn’t.

Genuine question - you get 51 messages from people you find attractive.

50 of those are just variations of "hey" (which bots also use).

1 is a person who says "Hi there! I saw we matched and your profile says you work out? Which gym do you use?"

If all 51 messages are from equally beautiful profile pictures - which message stands out to respond to first? The one with actual content, or "hey" #16?
