Anyone else remember using Facebook to find out if your new crush was available?

I mean besides rating women, that was the initial purpose of FB.

Only if you are looking meet crazy people

crazy people

I prefer the term "people with an interesting personality".

I put on my robe and wizard hat...

I'd date on Lemmy, since it seems many folks here align more closely with my political views than anywhere else I've been.

Problem is, many folks are so privacy-focused (some to the point of paranoia) they won't give you much info about themselves or their personal lives.

Kind of funny, tbh.

If a cute girl could manage to dox and kidnap me, then it could work out as long as she has good internet in the basement.

I'm sure if the plan is to kidnap you, the end goal will result in

Tap for spoilertorture and/or death
— not living as a pet in the basement.

Torture just means she wasn't the right one.

Imo it's also sort of hard because of the size. You'd have to find really small communities so you're running into the same people and have the opportunity to foster relationships. easier on smaller instances or communities, but if you're just browsing /all it'll be harder to notice the same people.

unless, like, a dating specific instance or community popped up. tho I can see all kinds of issues in that

A dating community sounds like fun!

No idea how it would be modded, though. But I don't plan to communicate on an 18+ level without at least meeting in-person first. I'm aware that many people do not take the same approach, though.

Idk. Still kind of interested in a dating instance!

Why not both?

I use DDMMYYYY for everyday use but when naming backups (mainly on an external SSD) I use YYYYMMDD so sorting by name works correctly

As long as we agree that months go in the middle, idgaf

[–] pancakes@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

But YY/MM/DD works better for sorting files since then sorting by name will give you chronological order.

What kind of monster are you.

[–] dingus@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Honestly a lot of us on here talk about being lonely so...

If there's a hole...

Time to make a Lemmy Dating App 🤣

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Was thinking about making a board for dating, but then I realized how much chaos certain people would cause there.
