No idea how to link communities here but l4l is basically a direct r4r port. Unfortunately it basically doesn’t have active users

From my own experience: dating apps all suck. Everything is staged, way too focused on visuals instead of inner values, etc. People get so lost in their and other peoples’ appearance. Furthermore, the profit incentive makes the platform milk desperate users. Don’t ever pay for otherwise free apps. They use you. Give you hope just as your subscription runs out, etc.
What I can personally recommend: dating subreddits like r4r. Reddit, I know, but the community on Lemmy is too small. You can meet people at your own speed and there is no profit incentive that ruins the platform for users. The algorithm treats all users more or less fairly, too.

on What is your weirdest self-hosting problem you've had to solve? For me: Mouse inside the server. in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world · 18 Aug 2026
My server once randomly kernel panicked once (and only once) and it took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out that a ram stick (too poor for ECC) had gone bad. Also took all my proxmox backup server backups with it because the validation would always fail (also due to the ram stick). Still worked fine otherwise lol

Their AI is terrible
I’ve personally had luck with dating subreddits like r4r.
I’m too introverted for irl dating so it was the only remaining option for me.
Found my current girlfriend there and I couldn’t be any happier with her.
