I disagree.

If 20 years ago it was rare for romantic/sexual partners to meet online vs in person, the trend is now reversed. We are now in a fully democratized app dating landscape. It therefore stands to reason that the same people who were successful at converting meetings in person would be successful at converting online as the skills are essentially the same.

Depends on the app, but Tinder for example is reportedly up to 80% male. That fact alone condemns most men seeking relationships on there, there's simply not enough women on there for every guy no matter how much 'game' you have.

4:1 is a rather typical night club/bar ratio.
