Did you read the article? It quotes him saying many things that aren't true. For that reason there probably is legal recourse for a defamation case, but it's the kind of thing that takes years, and costs a lot of money in the interim.

Pretty shocking that someone whose business is being actively attacked on a subreddit, one that is not only relevant to them but is one of the biggest drivers of student interest and a major recruiting tool, has no recourse in this situation. A lot of people mentioning the legal angle don’t realize what a nightmare that kind of litigation would be. It’s frankly outrageous that Reddit doesn’t take the time to investigate such a flagrant conflict of interest and just chooses not to respond at all. I understand not wanting to police every subreddit but now you’re talking about potentially millions in losses for a business. All because of one unhinged asshole who’s trying to promote his own competing business. If this doesn’t turn into a lawsuit hopefully it makes enough noise for Reddit to pay attention and help resolve the issue.

A substantial portion of people don't use dating apps to find a relationship. You may just be visiting a city and interested in having someone take you out to the nicest restaurant in town.

If you're looking to settle down then the payment factor probably doesn't matter so much, in which case you could place TWIBS at your local pizza place, bowling alley, hiking trails.

The idea is to help people find what they're actually looking for instead of assuming everyone is out to find "the one"

That's fair, but the preference is pinned to the TWIB/location, not the user. So while some men may offer to pay for a meal at the most expensive restaurant in town, not all men will necessarily offer to pay at any location.
