We've got a bunch of new people now so let's bring back a classic post. What low stakes conspiracy theory do you believe that you cannot prove but feels right to you?

I'll start: I believe that dating apps have made a concerted effort to smear in person meeting people and tie it to being "creepy" through social media so you are forced to meet people online(which was the creepy option just 15 years ago)

When I am using dating apps, I completely delete my account and remake it every few weeks.

From my experience, they give your profile a lot of extra reach in the first 2-3 weeks or so before throttling it.

It's been a while since I've done this, though, I imagine they'll eventually start combating that strategy if they're not doing it already.
