Gut feeling is not the best thing to rely on in these situations, because there is a chance of jumping into a prejudice. It all depends on a large number of factors which you have to understand before making any conclusions I will not go proactively into explaining why, but I will be happy to provide you with some resources if you are interested to dive in deeper into this topic

Tinder is a sucky way to meet people anyway, when more people realize it and stop using it, that is when the change will come. P.S: Kyiv not Kiev

Bunch of nonsense, which ignores the fact of crippled trust and hostility in a psychologically crippled post-communist society. What does “cultural difference” mean? If you dig a bit of history in the last 110 years in Russia and have a basic understanding of psychology - you can easily answer why people don’t smile in Russia.

There is one certain thing - they are getting something out of that and they want people to use it. I'm not sure what exactly. They either found a backdoor or a struck a deal. Things like that aren't a joke in Russia. Mass control and surveillance is a real thing, there are many reports of people being put in jail for writing something against the government on Facebook or other platforms.
