      What a weird and cynical thing to comment. “Through friends” and “through church” and “through work” are also kinds of algorithms, just limited. And not everyone who met online met through a dating service that’s using an algorithm to match people. I met my now wife online in 2014 on an MMO, no algorithm involved.

        no algorithm involved.

        I know what you mean, but as a software engineer this offended me.
