Why are guys on dating apps so boring?

Ugh not to be rude or anything but every guy on dating apps are either after sex or are just SO BORING. I cant get one bloody good convo from guys on dating apps. Its so hard to meet people in real life and thats the only way i would go about it but ive probably been watching too many romcoms. Does anyone else use dating apps ? If so have you had any luck actually finding someone great I would love to hear your stories!
Dating apps are shite.

Because you're outside my fifteen-mile 'catchment area', presumably.
Take control of the conversation if they're not coming up with interesting topics.
I found that it had to be interesting from both ends. If I was sending dead or short replies I'd get shite chat back. Sometimes if you put in a lot of effort you'll get that back. I always just unmatched if they were dry tho.

Dating apps is like a device used to remove the outer loop of a banana
That's rich coming from a member of the less funny and interesting half of humanity.
Most guys on dating apps like tinder are there for ons or no strings, not interesting conversation.
Same applies to a lot of female users too.

What kind of conversations are you initiating and how are they responding?
