This might be a dumb question... but uh... what are the alternatives in the modern US?

How do people meet nowadays? Like there are no 3rd places left, I dont want to pay to be in some overmonitized club or some shit. I am long out of school. Meeting people seems next to impossible nowadays.

Most people meet partners through mutual friends and at work.

Unless you already have shit loads of friends this is not viable. And dating at work has almost gotten impossible with the risk of harassment.

Young people are fucked.
