   Cute. Of course, beyond basic deal breakers, neither do people know their preferences (but they think they do), nor do the majority of preference categories actually matter.

   This is a common problem with all dating apps. Specifically, interests, hobbies, daily routines, objectives, etc. have nothing to do with compatibility.

   “We like the same things!” is the compatibility signal of a naive 22-yr old…

      And yet it is a great starting signal, possibly better than "I like the other person physically".

      One of the best ways to have a long term relationship is by talking to each other, having stuff in common is a good way to set the stage for that
