Love and hate with Dr. Johanna Degen

Everyone wants to have a good time with online dating, but only a few can really enjoy it. Why? We talk about it with Dr. Johanna Degen a.k.a. “Dr Tinder”. In this interview, the social and media psychologist explains how “dating app fatigue” occurs, what you can do about it and why ghosting should never be an option. Unfortunately, when it comes to love, it’s often also about hate. And there’s a lot of it on the internet. We asked participants at re:publica Berlin to find out what needs to be done to combat hate speech.
