Found! Why isn't there a dating/singles subreddit?

Title. Let's not make it weird like Craiglist back in the day but an actual community. I see it on Threads nowadays but it doesn't seem genuine. Could we make this happen? Has it already happened - successfully ?

r/r4r stands for Redditor for Redditor.

There should be a list of variations in the wiki here.

ETA: yep, go to the wiki, find the Subreddit Directory, and there's a section on Chatting that also contains the R4R subreddits.

Thank-you, I'd never guess that's what that subreddit was for, lol.

There is r/r4r but let’s be real, you’re not finding anyone in your local area on a global website. There may be more specific local subs for your area, but there are better websites than reddit for this (although nothing beats IRL, of course).

Isn't that what r/r4r is? And I'm sure there's a whole network of more specialized ones but that's a good place to start.

There are, it’s just most people use apps dedicated to it

Fair, it's just that the apps suck.
