What age bracket did you fall into at the time? I’ve found from talking to various people that dating apps like Tinder are great if you’re young but turn into a horror show after about 35.

I think there’s a winnowing effect as you age out of the app. So it may not be that they’re all bad or good but rather that you have to seek your audience elsewhere as you age out of the apps. I think this is probably true for anyone looking for a relationship.

I think this is just dating in general. People that are broadly attractive are more likely to not be still dating at 35 compared to people who are not as broadly attractive.

It wasn’t physical attractiveness at all, but rather that older people on dating apps tended to be bad people. They had personality defects and bad attitudes.

I didn't say anything specific about physical attractiveness in my comment, you just read that in.
