## Resource

Dating apps are crashing amid a surge of “swipe fatigue,” as users feel emotionally drained and companies lose hundreds of thousands of subscribers. People are flocking to live dating events that prioritize personality over profiles, rejecting the endless scroll in favor of real-world connection. Experts warn apps are engineered for engagement, not love, creating a “McDonaldisation” of romance. As AI matchmaking experiments emerge, critics argue it can’t replace human intuition — and users are increasingly choosing to ditch apps altogether for authentic, in-person encounters.
