Hey Bluesky, Do you also feel that modern dating apps are broken?

Too much swiping, not enough meaning and a huge gender imbalance.

Modern tech is awesome, but I feel like these apps are ruining romantic relationships.

I’ve decided to try and build a platform that makes dating healthy again ❤️
After a weekend bender and a hungerover saturday, im back to #buildinpublic

Any dating app needs a profile creation screen. Currently mine has
- the option to upload up to 6 images
- the option to add a bio

What other options should I add? What is the best way people can convey their personality?

Day 4 #bulidinpublic

Just hacking away at a #MVP
How long is this supposed to take? 😅 (asking for a friend)

Also gotta keep that RSI in check whilst balancing this with my day job. Keep those nerves happy.

Day 3 #buildinpublic

Today I picked the technologies:
Backend: #SpringBoot + Kotlin
+ Love Kotlin
+ Very comfortable with spring boot
- Not as fast as a Baas, but allows for more flexibility

Frontend: #Flutter
+ 1 codebase, both IOS and Android
+ Strongly typed
- Relatively new to the ecosystem

Today is my second day attempting to #buildinpublic

I am wondering whether to go ahead and build an MVP, or perform a more in depth market analysis.

At what point are you ready to start building? What is your experience? #tech #IndieDev #SoftwareEngineer #SaaS

Question to those that #buildinpublic and the #indiedeveloper out there.

If you could go back in time and give advice to yourself when you just started out, what would it be?

I'm curious (for no particular reason at all, trust me 😅)

trying to fix dating apps.

too much swiping, weird vibes, not enough meaning.
i'm building something slower, healthier, more human.

early days — but building in public as i go.

I've said in my previous posts that dating apps suck. I am trying to build one that doesn't.

There are still many unknowns and a lot of decisions to be made.

Im curious about your experiences on these apps, and if you have any ideas to make them better! Lets try this together

Dating apps are often frustrating for both men and women.

For men, the lack of matches can be extremely frustrating. Not being able to form meaningful relationships - despite wanting to - is sad, but it can also seriously damage their self esteem and poison their view of dating and women.
