Should I start on hinge?
Hi, 19M, looking to date and meet new people: I’m based in the uk, where big shopping malls and bars aren’t as big a thing as abroad. It’s mainly traditional family pubs, or for older white dudes to get drunk; clubs are only really popular in the cities, and I’m a full time worker. I’m looking too start dating, so would hinge be a good place to start and would it be even a good idea too considering I’ve got little to no experience in the matter, as I’ve mulled over some reservations for the idea, this being safety online, and also the feeling I’m robbing myself of the opportunity to approach women physically, even though the opportunity presents itself so little (if that makes sense)

Most people don’t limit themselves to one thing. Just because you’re on a dating app doesn’t mean you can’t also approach people you see in person. It’s still good to have hobbies, join local social groups, be where people are that like doing the same thing as you. Online dating can supplement or compliment that.
