I've been in a relationship for the past 15 years... So probably not the target demographic for this question?
But for what it's worth, listening to single friends over the years, it sure sounds harder than it was back when I was dating (the online aspect of everything seems like loads of extra work).
I’m totally out of touch with dating today, but I have the opinion it’s harder to date strangers than when I last tried it 35 years ago, because there are fewer places to hang out at; less places to go; less large interactions; less concerts; less bars; less bowling alleys and fewer church events .
Where would I take a date at? Feeding pigeons together?
Currently I'm not even bothering with it. It's not worth the stress. Maybe a less socially anxious person can still enjoy it but not me.
