    I think this is actually good in that the online space lets us have access to more options and let folks find partners that are well suited to their idiosyncracies

    What’s bad about it I think is the fact that capitalists are involved extracting value. But essentially we have inserted control and intentionality into a process that previously was more or less random. The wisdom really did used to be, just wait for it, it will happen when you least expect it. Well, not for everyone!
