With using tinder on web, that was the one thing I could not get a straight answer on anywhere. My rule with the major platforms is simple — check whether the userbase is active in your area before you register.
The effect was more noticeable on these mainstream apps in real use than I expected. Hope that saves someone the weeks I lost on using tinder on web.
