An error message appears saying "The following are not allowed: no zionist, no zionists" when users try to add the phrase to their bios, but any number of other phrases about political and religious preferences are allowed.
I think it could happen, but it would have to be a foss app and a paid service or funded by ads, because you need paid people to moderate services like that, moderation on lemmy is about civility and people being mean to eachother, but moderation on a dating app might involve dealing with sexual assault and other illegal things in a much more prominent way. Or it would have to be funded by a government or charity which is not very likely in the present.
Could probably crowd fund professional mods and infrastructure. Was always confused that the counter culture types don’t do more underground things like that over using rainbow capitalism. But I’m not part of that world so I have no real idea
Tbh it’s been terrible lately. Free services increasingly go behind a paywall, they’ve limited how many convos you can have (invisibly, they just fall off), they show you fewer and fewer people.
The fediverse could be really useful in the dating space - capitalism means they never really want you to find The One, because then you might delete the app.
I’m thinking this could be a fedi instance a front-end app and a small subscription donation for paid moderation. Now if only I wasn’t a brain damaged vibe coder with no idea where to start building out that idea
Looks like the community needs a foss alternative

There’s Alovoa. Unfortunately, last time I checked, there were not many people on there
