Are people overchecking profiles before meeting from dating apps?

[RubyCronin]

I’ve been seeing a growing trend where people don’t just rely on chatting anymore before meeting someone from dating apps—they try to look deeper into the person’s online presence as well. Tools like Tea Checker are often mentioned in this context, where users try to verify if someone has any mentions or activity on certain platforms before deciding to meet. While I understand the safety concern, I’m not sure if this habit is making online dating safer or just making people more skeptical from the start.
