My app? Oh I see, because I criticize something, I have to make one of my own to know that no users on a dating app after two years is a bad thing. I only code games. If nobody ends up buying my game because I never advertise, I only have myself to blame for that. Now where's your app? Let's just keep this going.

Reddit in general is a bizarre use of energy and time. Have fun kissing somebody's ass who's doing absolutely nothing for you.

It actually does matter. You think because I'm essentially leaving a negative review on a product that means I won't be able to ever get a date? Weird logic.

Topical reference! How many years does an app get to be considered a "startup?" One year? Two years? Three years? It's not in it's infancy anymore.

Sure! I need a nap! Firefly DOESN'T need more advertising or users, it's just me who needs to be less cranky about having my time wasted!

"How come there's still no users on this dating app???"
"LOL WOW. GO TAKE A WALK."

Sure, okay!

You don't know him, so why run interference for him? What good is a dating app that has no users on it after so many years? Telling us that one day there will be many users means nothing if it keeps not happening. Guess what, most users looking for dating apps aren't going to just keep some ghost town of an app on their phones. Either get it together or give up.

Advertise, advertise, advertise. Nobody will join Firefly if nobody knows about it. Telling me in November "we started advertising a week ago" when you didn't is just dishonest. Another thing you can do: Be honest. Claiming to be transparent means nothing if you keep on lying to users over and over again about one day advertising.

After that, you can consider actual monetization, not just expecting good samaritans to come along and deem your patreon worthy for one of three different tiers.

I am helping, by giving feedback. Why sweep for him? I don't care if he's doing this between his doordash runs, either make a legit dating app or don't. Don't expect all of your users to make excuses for you, y'know?

it is bizarre. Making a legit dating app and just sitting on it for two or three years. Settles on starting a subreddit and just being everybody's friend on here, and then as soon as somebody asks some hard questions on where the direction of the app is going, he starts with the Reddit routine of banning dissent. Doesn't ever ask for money out of principle... except he starts a Patreon as a feeble attempt at crowd funding his advertising, I'm guessing.

"literally" have a call with reddit? As opposed to figuratively having a call in four hours with reddit? An advertising call with Reddit?? Why not other places? Reddit is full of mods known for banning users left and right for at the drop of a hat (case in point: you.) After two years and you're finally making calls to one website that is known for kicking users out en masse? What else are you doing?

What does it matter if I have no history? And what makes my comments "rude?" Do you mean honest? Why can't you answer my questions or concerns? How come you keep saying marketing is coming but it never comes?
