In the English speaking world, the biggest and most important dating app by far is Instagram.

Match Group should be considered an adult entertainment business, like the old Craigslist personals.

Actually, I just checked the market cap of MTCH, it’s $7.3 billion - about in line with the $8 billion valuation being floated for OnlyFans.

I haven't been in the dating market for a while but I kinda have the same feels. Trouble here is that instagram is only functional if you have a real friends group that can seed your instagram, otherwise random people will mostly just ignore you, in that sense the dating apps do have something instagram doesn't.

Yes, Instagram is your social resume. Most people use Instagram to "verify" you even if they find you on a dating app.
