Show HN: The future of dating → no swipes, no online chats

4 points by SingleSpot 7y ago ↗ HN

We're the new kid on the dating scene, but with a different approach: an app with no swipes and no online chats at all. It's called SingleSpot.

We're responding to the current dating-app fatigue by focusing on real-life interactions: our app shows you singles currently in bars and cafés around you. And that's all it does. The rest is on you ;-)

The goal is to make dating social and authentic again, by removing all virtual interactions and keeping just the right amount of technology.

Sounds very old-school! It's hard to believe that it took this long for someone to come up with an approach to dating that uses just the right amount of tech. I would imagine many other web services could improve their site by considering: "How much tech is the right amount of tech?"

I can see this working for a section of society but not all, a lot many people are working class and will find it difficult to use this compared to swiping, chatting, building up some repo and finally meeting .
