Are online dating apps truly that bad for guys?

I have been out of the dating game for quite some time and pending on certain things going on in my life currently I might find myself back in the dating pool at some point.

I’ve read a ton of stories across all corners of the internet of absolutely horrible experiences (mainly no matches, fake accounts, unrealistic expectations, etc) and was just curious if dating apps are really that bad for cisgender guys like myself? Can you really find love on a dating app or is it just an endless meat market for people with commitment issues?
