A popular dating app that removed its controversial "women-first" messaging policy is reportedly in talks with an investment firm for a potential acquisition. The move comes after the app faced criticism for its gender-biased feature, which restricted male users from initiating conversations with female users. Industry observers suggest the sale could signal a shift in the app’s business strategy amid growing competition in the online dating market. Details on the financial terms and next steps remain undisclosed.


The dating app which recently ditched its "women-first" chat rule could be bought by an investment firm.
