Current successful and mainstream dating platforms are charging high fees to keep low quality people off the platform. Dating sites are overrun by men immediately and you have to control your userbase and men-women ratio or you're dead in the water. Like a club. That's why women get to sign up for free most of the times and men have to pay.
However once you charge money and manipulate and moderate what's happening, you have to have a big team of employees, with that comes all the company baggage, you're in a jurisdiction and have to abide by whatever rules they make up and so forth.
With nine of that, you can implement all the settings people want and self-moderating tools that no company offers due to political correctness.
I see no problem with exploitation even with the current platforms. Those are services offered by companies, take it or leave it.
