New Year, So I Redownloaded the Dating Apps: What Changed?
Dating in 2025: how to use these features to find love in the New Year! I redownloaded the dating apps—Tinder, Bumble, Hinge—you know, the usual suspects. In this episode, I dive into what’s changed, what hasn’t, and whether the swipe scene is any less chaotic than before. Spoiler alert: it’s probably still a lil weird and VERY full of hope! If you’ve ever wondered whether dating apps are worth the hassle in 2025, this one’s for you.
Along the way, I share some hard-earned dating advice from my time swiping on over 3,000 profiles and making 160+ matches. Looking for love, something casual, or just bored scrolling, this episode has plenty of insights (and a few laughs) to tell you what's been going on since you last opened the Big Apps!
