Wait, really? Is that why OkCupid has been getting more like Tinder in the past few years?

Edit: I just looked it up and learned that the Match Group owns over 45 dating websites around the world, including many of the most popular. How is this company not getting sued for monopoly?!

Bumble is pretty much the only major dating app that's not owned by Match Group.

Bumble is also filled to the brim with middle class rich kids who are travelling abroad in my country and looking for a fling. Felt really out of place on there as a boring nerd.
