I’ve met my current girlfriend via bumble, back in early 2023. As a man, I was extremely annoyed at how many women would match with me and never send a message, felt like a full 2/3. Seems like half of them skipped the “you, woman, are supposed to start the conversation”, never understanding why none of the men ever sent a hi
My gf was one that initially didn’t understand that dynamic and nearly lost our match, she had to be told by a friend (that recommended her use the app in the first place) that she had to send the first message. Dunno how much could be the app’s fault, it does state during profile creation that women make the first move, but it probably didn’t put any other reminders afterwards.
Other dates I went out with also had similar stories of not paying attention to that message.

That sounds like a huge issue.
It was.
