This is such a monumental change in human relations. I don’t even know whether it’s good or bad it’s just incredible to witness such a revolution play out in front of us.

there is also an entire sub-genre of anti-dating-app content that provides color commentary on how the revolution is going (not optimistic but don’t have recent personal experience here)

This is interesting, if unsurprising. I also met my wife online so am maybe somewhat biased in favor. Before he got cancelled, Aziz Ansari had a (non-comedy) series about modern love where he talked about this trend among other things. I remember he talked about how modern westerners scoff at the idea of Indian arranged marriages, but that even 60 years ago that was more the norm worldwide — spouses met through family primarily and were more often than not based on social strategy than love. And even if marriages weren’t organized by family, the number one factor dictating who you would marry for many centuries was simple geography. Online dating turns both of those things on their head. Personally, I don’t see how anyone can be a person of math or science and not admit that love connections facilitated by algorithms and based on shared interests and commonalities must necessarily be better than ones formed by simple geographic lottery alone 🤷🏻♂️

The thing that makes me a little uneasy about it is algos are deciding what babies are born.

Be interesting to see a comparison of the % of people in relationships (de facto + married) vs single over a similar time frame. I suspect that there's more single people today than historically.

Always wonder if there is much difference based on communities where folks live, rural vs small city vs big city. Happy to have dated and met my wife before this graph kicked off, as I don’t think I would have done well with online as a standard method. Mostly surprised as low the through friends has become over the years.
