Can we start a fediverse dating app?

I'm currently visiting the Ambien walrus writing this so forgive me if this idea is screwy, but I'd love to create a new space.

It would be 99% dudes. Oh wait

Jokes on you, I'm into that shit.

[–] Ad4mWayn3@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Always has been. Love your crew ;)

Sounds good to me. Maybe it's just a matter of branding.

[–] Lonnie123@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sure, I'll start one for you for a meager $498/month

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

A mere pittance my dear..

I think you’re massively underestimating the amount of effort required to keep sketchiness off of a dating platform

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I did say that I was on Ambien haha.

I was gonna say it didn't sound screwy until you mentioned the Ambien walrus, but, apparently, that's a real thing.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It is absolutely a real thing. I've done some wild things on it. But I'm glad the idea itself doesn't sound bad.

There's a FLOSS dating platform: https://alovoa.com
